Uttar Pradesh: School manager held for allegedly raping 15-year-old girl in Bulandshahr

A school manager has been arrested for raping a 15-year-old girl in 2015, after the video of the incident went viral, the police said today.

The high school student was allegedly raped by the school manager, Jitendra Kumar, last year. She did not disclose the incident out of fear, the police said.

The manager had the video clip of the incident, with which he threatened the girl, the police added, noting that she informed her family only after the video went viral.

The family had filed an FIR in Kotwali Bagwala, Bulandshahr yesterday, following which the man was arrested.

Meanwhile, a 22-year-old youth was killed when he opposed his father's alleged attempt to rape his wife in Gaura area in Balrampur.

According to the FIR filed by the victim Kishan Kumar's wife, her husband, who opposed an alleged rape bid by his father, was forced to drink poison and was set afire while she was locked in a room in Motipur Kudoha village, SP Rajiv Malhotra said.
