(CNN) -- Outraged Kenyans are demanding justice for a teenage girl who was allegedly gang-raped, dumped in a sewage ditch, and left for dead.
Her alleged attackers were ordered to cut grass at the police station as punishment, then later freed, local rights groups said.
The 16-year-old was walking home from her grandfather's funeral in Busia town when the attack occurred.
After the alleged rape, the six men reportedly buried her in the 20-foot latrine. Neighbors heard her cries for help hours later and pulled her out, bloody and by then unconscious, according to Kenya's Daily Nation, which broke the story.
She identified three of her attackers, and neighbors hauled them off to the local police station, the paper said.
Police ordered the suspects to cut grass in the yard, then released them shortly after, according to the newspaper, which is spearheading a fundraiser to help meet the medical bills for the teen, who's been nicknamed Liz.
