Minor taking care of rape survivor sister, kidnapped and raped

Speed News Desk | Updated on: 10 February 2017, 1:49 IST

A 14-year-old girl looking after her older sister, a rape survivor, was herself kidnapped from Jabalpur's Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College Hospital by the son of a hospital cleaner, and raped.

The alleged rape took place in a village outside the hospital. It came to light on Thursday, when the girl managed to escape from the accused, 23-year-old Abhishek Thakur alias Pappu.

Pappu has been arrested and booked for kidnapping and rape under provisions of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, 2012, says the Hindustan Times.

The hospital has sacked Pappu's mother, a cleaner, said medical college dean Dr Ruplekha Chauhan on Friday.

The girl alleged that Pappu had lured her to his house on Tuesday and raped her. She had been taking care of her older sister who was in hospital for observation after being raped last month.
