Doc rapes daughter for two years, held

In a starling revelation, the girl, a 16-year-old school dropout, complained to the police that her father Potnuri Raju (46) had been raping her since the time she attained puberty in 2008. He had made her his “sex slave” at their home in Tagarapuvalasa village the district’s Bheemili mandal, the girl told the police.

According to Bheemili Sub Inspector Suryanarayana, the girl was probably warned by her father not to report this to anyone and threatened to finish off the whole family with his knowledge about poisonous injections and medicines if the matter was let out.
The girl had sought the police’s help now, as she wanted to resist the moves of her father towards her younger sister, who had recently attained puberty, the police officer said. “It is surprising the mother of the teenager never knew about her husband’s advances towards her daughter,” he added. However the girl is said to have told the police that her mother knew about it but kept quite fearing social ostracisation.

Women’s outfits

Women’s organisations that accompanied the girl to the Bheemili police station pointed out that the girl suddenly dropping out of school was enough indication that she was sexually abused by some close relative. It was generally seen that such behavioural changes hinted at sexual abuse.

The registered medical practitioner also confessed to the police that he raped his daughter few years ago under the influence of alcohol, but never touched her again.
