Father brutally assaulted for resisting crime. Accused also hit the father with the butt of a country-made pistol
family did not file the complaint, fearing social stigma, but father registered complaint later.
The station house officer Omprakash has said that a case has been registered in this regard and efforts are being made to arrest the accused as soon as possible.
It is notable that the victim girl’s mother had died a few years back. The accused was stalking the girl for a long time. But the family did not file any case owing to social stigma. Now as the girl faced this unfortunate incident and her father is also assaulted, they had met with the SP, and then the case is registered.
There have been repeated rape incidents in the Baghpat area, especially in the last few months. It has rather become a matter of concern for the girls of minor age in this area. Earlier, similar incidents have happened and were reported here in November 2021 and in July 2021 before that. In some cases, the accused rapist had also forcefully converted the victim girl into Islam.
