40-year-old man arrested for allegedly raping minor girl

New Delhi: A 40-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly abducting and raping a minor girl in North Delhi’s Sadar Bazaar area, police said on Monday. The accused, Sudama, resided in Nabi Karim area and worked as a cart puller in Sadar Bazaar, they said. The incident took place on Friday night.

The eight-year-old girl was sleeping with her grandmother outside their house when the accused took her to a nearby place and raped her, they said. According to police, when the girl’s grandmother woke up and did not find the child, she alerted a family member. Though the girl returned to the house, she started bleeding the next morning. The family then rushed her to a hospital and informed the police.

Since the victim only spoke Marathi, police took help from a woman who spoke the language to interact with the girl. The victim narrated her ordeal and managed to give a description of the accused. The accused was arrested on Saturday.
