Udupi, Feb 10: A 22-year-old Dalit youth has been arrested by the police in Udupi district for allegedly raping and impregnating his younger sister.

The accused has been identified as Sridhar, a resident of Nejar near Santhekatte here. He was picked up by the Malpe police on Tuesday after a DNA test confirmed his sexual relationship with the minor girl.

minorAccording to the police, the accused used to sexually assault the 14-year-old sister while their parents, who work as labourers, were away for work. He had reportedly also threatened her of ‘dire consequences’ if she complained about him to anyone.

The incident of sexual assault had in fact come to light in September 2015, when the girl was rushed to a local hospital after she complained of severe pain in her stomach. Doctors at the hospital had told her parents that she was in pregnancy. The victim had undergone abortion.

However, the victim, daughter of a daily wage worker, had not revealed the name of the accused. Later the police grew suspicious and subjected the victim, her brother and four other suspects to DNA test. The report brought to light the shocking reality.

Police sources said that Shridhar has confessed that he sexually assaulted her sister several times between June and August 2015. He was booked under POCSO Act. A court has remanded him to judicial custody till February 27.
