Minor Girl Sexually Abused By Father, Brother, Grandfather, Uncle Over Five Years: Pune Police

According to an official, police have lodged a complaint under several sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for rape and molestation but have yet to arrest anyone.

New Delhi: The Pune Police claimed today that a girl was raped at different times by her adolescent brother and their father, while her grandpa and a distant relative sexually assaulted her. The crime was conducted over the previous five years.

According to an official, police have lodged a complaint under several sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for rape and molestation but have yet to arrest anyone, news agency PTI reported.

"While a case of rape was registered under section 376 of the Indian Penal Code against the brother and the 45-year-old father of the girl, who is 11-year-old now, at a police station in Pune, her grandfather (aged around 60) and the distant uncle (aged around 25) were charged under section 354 (Assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty)," the police informed PTI.

Bihar is the home state of the survivor and her family. They presently reside in Pune.

"The incident came to light when the girl opened up during a 'good touch and bad touch' session in her school. Her ordeal was going on for the last five years," said Ashwini Satpute, police inspector (crime).

According to the police inspector, the father began sexually abusing his daughter in 2017 when they were residing in Bihar.

"The girl's elder brother started sexually assaulting her around November 2020. Her grandfather and distant uncle used to touch her inappropriately," the police inspector said.

According to Inspector Satpute, because all incidences occurred individually and the accused may not have been aware of each other's acts, this is not a case of gang rape.

Sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offenses Act (POCSO) will be added, according to the police.
