In yet another shameful incident, it has been reported that a six year old has been raped by a 32 year old at Khetri. The accused has been identified as Pulak Deka.
According to sources, the incident occurred when the victim’s mother left her with Deka at his house and went out for some work along with the wife of the accused.
It is suspected that Deka offered some addictive substance to the victim and forced himself on her.
The entire incident came to light when the victim told her mother about Deka’s act. The mother of the victim soon rushed the 6 year old to nearby hospital, and the hospital authority confirmed about the same.
Khetri Police, on Thursday morning arrested the accused who was on the run, from NH-37.
