Maharashtra police Arrested three for Kidnapping, Raping 13-year-old girl

Maharashtra Police have arrested three individuals in connection with the kidnapping and rape of a 13-year-old girl. The arrests were made following an investigation led by the Washim Police.

Washim Superintendent of Police, Anuj Tare, stated, “An FIR was lodged on August 21 reporting the kidnapping of a 13-year-old girl. On August 22, the girl was found. Based on her statement and medical examination, it was confirmed that she was raped. All three accused named by the victim have been arrested.” Further investigation into the case is ongoing.

In a separate incident, the Kalyan Court on Monday sent an accused in the Badlapur sexual assault case to 14-day judicial custody. The accused was previously in police custody. The case involves the alleged sexual assault of two fourth-grade girls by a school attendant, which led to widespread outrage in the region.

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) handling the Badlapur case has also registered an FIR against the school authorities for failing to report the crime as mandated by Section 19 of the POCSO Act. The authorities have been booked under Section 21 of the Act for their negligence in not informing the police, as confirmed by the SIT.
