Hyderabad: The Chatrinaka police on Thursday arrested two persons for allegedly sexually assaulting a minor for over a year and impregnating her.
The incident came to light when the victim’s parents found out that the girl was five months pregnant. The parents took her in confidence and asked her who the perpetrators were. One of the accused was identified as the victim’s cousin.
Based on the complaint filed by the victim’s parents, the Chatrinaka police registered a case against the accused under POCSO Act. The police further said that the accused committed the offence as he lured the victim on the pretext of marriage.
The victim gave in to the offender’s demand of having a physical relationship, following which the accused invited his friends to rape the victim.
As police initiated the investigation, BJP leader and member of the National Commission for Minorities Syed Shahazadi visited the Chatrinaka police station and enquired about the progress of the case.
However, police officials were miffed over Shahzadi’s arrogant behaviour.
