“When I asked my daughter about what had happened during the night, she revealed that Anshu, a Hari Nagar Colony resident, took her to a guest house on his motorcycle, claiming that they would return after celebrating the birthday of one Avinash. Anshu left after cutting the cake at night. After that, Avinash raped my daughter. She returned home the next day. My daughter revealed that Avinash had previously raped her twice. I want strict action against Avinash and Anshu,” the mother of the victim said in her complaint.

Police officials took the girl to a hospital for a medical examination. An FIR was registered against Avinash and Anshu under sections 6 and 17 of the POCSO Act at the Shivaji Nagar police station on Monday.

“A special team has been formed to nab the suspects. Both the suspects are absconding. However, we will arrest them soon,” a senior police officer said.
