She was rescued by the police after the Twitter thread on the girl's condition went viral yesterday.
The couple from New Colony, who work in private companies, was allegedly torturing and sexually harassing the girl for months. Several injuries were found on her hands, feet and mouth, the police said.
“According to the complaint, the girl hails from Jharkhand. The couple allegedly used to beat her mercilessly for not working properly. She has several cut and burn injuries, suspected to have been inflicted with a blade or hot tongs,” the Indian Express quoted a police officer as saying.
The report stated that the doctors are also examining her to see if she was sexually abused.
“The girl had injuries on several parts of her body – face, arms, hands and feet. On one of her arms, her skin had been burnt. A preliminary probe has found that the couple allegedly accused the minor of stealing food and not working properly, and would beat her up as a result. They allegedly deprived her of food and gave her leftovers to eat. A medical examination has been conducted and further legal action will be taken accordingly,” said the police officer.
According to the report, the couple hired the victim a few months ago through a placement agency to look after their three-month-old daughter.
