An unidentified man lured a 13-year-old girl with the promise of wedding leftovers, took her to a eucalyptus grove and then raped her repeatedly.
The incident occurred in Rajanukunte near Doddaballapur, Bengaluru Rural district, on February 24 but the girl’s parents filed a police complaint on Saturday.
The man had approached the girl’s parents, who are roadside vendors in Sanjaynagar, north Bengaluru, saying he had plenty of leftovers from a wedding and was distributing it among people. He asked them to come with him and collect the food. The couple sent their teenage daughter with him. The man took her in his vehicle and drove to a eucalyptus grove in Rajanukunte. But instead of giving her the food, he pounced on her and raped her repeatedly. He dropped her off at her house at 9 pm and drove off.
When her parents asked the girl about the food, she kept quiet. Finally, she spoke up on Saturday. Her parents then approached the Sanjaynagar police and filed a complaint. A Pocso case has been registered and police are checking CCTV camera footage to identify the culprit and track him down.
Held for colleague’s rape
A 32-year-old man was recently arrested for raping his colleague several times after promising to marry her.
The Hanumanthanagar police arrested Ravi Kumar, a resident of Jayanagar 7th Block, based on the complaint filed by a 30-year-old woman. Kumar was working with her at a private company in KR Puram. A couple of years ago, they developed intimacy. Kumar proposed to her and the woman accepted his proposal.
Both of them had a physical relationship. A couple of months ago, Kumar started ignoring her and told her he would not marry her. She tried to convince him but in vain, said police.
The woman, who felt cheated, approached the police and filed a complaint claiming that Kumar had raped her several times. Both Kumar and the woman were subjected to medical examination, police added.
Bizman accused of ‘rape’
A 39-year-old woman has accused a Gujarat-based businessman of sexually harassing her on the “false promise of marriage”.
In a complaint at the Sanjaynagar police station, the woman said she was in a live-in relationship with the 59-year-old man for more than 10 years. The businessman had promised to marry her. But whenever she broached the subject with him, he shrugged it off, giving one excuse or another. The couple quarrelled recently and started living separately. Later, the woman approached the police and filed a complaint of rape.
A police officer refused to reveal the businessman’s identity, saying the complaint was still being verified. He said they would arrest the man if the rape allegation was found to be true.
