Siddipet, Telangana: Three young people have been arrested in connection with the repeated sexual assault of a minor girl in the Dubakka mandal of Siddipet district, Telangana. The case was filed after the girl’s parents discovered she was pregnant and filed a complaint under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.
The survivor, a class 9th student, was brought to the Siddipet government hospital by her mother because she was ill, as told by Siddipet Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) G Madhu. The medical evaluations after a few tests showed that she was pregnant. After that, representatives from the Bharosa Center were informed and asked the girl for more information.
Three young people, two from Akbarpet-Bhumpalli Mandal and one from Dubakka Mandal, were found to have frequently visited the girl's house in March and April when her mother was not there. They allegedly used cunning tactics to entice the girl and repeatedly molested her sexually.
A POCSO case was registered against the accused after the girl's mother complained to the police. The trio of men were subsequently remanded into custody on Sunday.
