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.
According 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.
The kidnapped schoolboy was rescued by the police and reunited with his parents. Son of a gift shop owner from Basavanagudi area in Bengaluru, Chirag has reportedly told police that decided to make some quick money to spend on cricket betting and gambling after learning kidnap tricks from the ‘Crime Patrol’. According to police, Chirag reached a private school around 3pm on Tuesday on a Bounce rental bike and zeroed in on a fourth standard student who was walking out of school. He told the boy he was his father's friend and that he required help to search for a relative who had gone missing. The boy believed Chirag and rode pillion on the bike. Chirag then engaged the boy in conversation and learnt about his father's business and got his mobile phone number. He then made a call to the boy's father, demanded Rs 5 lakh and warned him against approaching cops. However, the boy's father alerted Cottonpet police and special teams were formed to crack the case. While Cottonpet inspector Venkatesh TC's squad verified CCTV footage in and around the school, Chamarajpet inspector BG Kumaraswamy's team started tracking the suspect's mobile phone movements. An hour later, the suspect's location was traced to a hotel on the Lavelle Road-St Mark's Road stretch. Police rushed there, rescued the boy and arrested Chirag.
