The incident occurred nearly 15 days ago but came to light when their teacher noticed the girls talking about the assault on them in school during a class on reproductive system after Dasara holidays.
When the teacher asked them what happened, the girls revealed the outrage perpetrated on them by their neighbour. They also told the teacher how the accused threatened to kill them if they revealed to any one about the assault on them.
