‘13-YEAR-OLD IDENTIFIED ALL PLACES WHERE SHE WAS RAPED’

KANPUR: The 13-year-old rape survivor has identified all the locations in Lalitpur and other areas where she was sexually assaulted by the SHO Tilak Dhari Saroj and other accused persons. Police said that the probe team will be taking the girl to Bhopal to identify the locations there also.

The girl was medically examined under tight security at the Lalitpur district hospital on Wednesday. After that, forensics experts accompanied her to the locations , said a senior police official. She identified the police station and the inspector’s chamber where she was raped as well as the point from where she was taken away by the four accused before that, the official said. In a bid to evade arrest, the Pali SHO had also conspired to hand over the minor to the Childline NGO instead of her parents, said people aware of the developments.

“So far, it appears that the accused SHO was in league with the accused. He did not act on the family’s complaint and kept misguiding the seniors,” a police official.
