The medical superintendent of the hospital, Dr Arvind Shukla said, “The minor was admitted at around 2 am, was under shock and bleeding profusely. A blood transfusion was done. She is stable and has undergone surgery, where plastic surgeons and gynaecologists were called. Her blood pressure has come back to normal.” Owing to the nature of wounds, the police believes the girl was raped and has been brutalised with sharp weapons.
SP Tejaswani Gautam informed that over 150 CCTV cameras in the area are being examined and probable suspects are being interrogated.
Former Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Vasundhara Raje Scindia has raised serious questions about the safety of women in the state. She tweeted, “Rajasthan has become No 1 in crimes against women. This cannot be tolerated. The Congress government needs to take urgent steps to protect women and save them from exploitation.”
नारी स्वाभिमान के पर्याय राजस्थान में बेटियों पर हो रहे अत्याचार को बर्दाश्त नहीं किया जा सकता। महिलाओं के खिलाफ अपराध के मामले में देश में न.1 बन चुके राजस्थान को शोषण मुक्त बनाने के लिए कांग्रेस सरकार को सख्त कदम उठाने चाहिए।#Rajasthan #Alwar
