NAGPUR: Fearing public wrath, a 30-year-old man, who was caught molesting a minor girl, slit his wrist and throat at Deepak Nagar on IBMRoad under the jurisdiction of Gittikhadan police station on Thursday afternoon.
According to complaint lodged by the Std IX victim, accused Amit Yadav, a daily wager, knocked at her door around 12 noon and asked for cold water when her parents were away for work. A drunk Yadav told the victim that he had forgotten to fill water in the morning and hence had nothing to drink. The girl told the police that when she walked into the kitchen to fetch water, Yadav locked the door from inside and molested her.
When Yadav tried to rape her, the girl gnawed on his hand and escaped. She ran out of the house screaming for help. Within minutes, neighbours gathered leaving no chance for Yadav to flee.
Police sub inspector DS Dahatonde, who is investigating the case, said that the residents informed that as the girl narrated the incident to them, Yadav remained locked inside the house. He refused the open the door. "Finally he stepped outside with a blade in his hand and threatened people that he would kill himself if anyone tried to touch him. When some of the men still walked near him, he slit his wrist first and later his throat. When people stepped aside, profusely bleeding Yadav ran away," Dahatonde said.
The residents immediately alerted the police control room and also informed the girl's parents. By the time, the cops reached the spot, Yadav could hardly cover any distance and collapsed. While some passersby were about to take him to a hospital, cops reached the spot and rushed him to Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital (IGGMCH).
Police said alcoholic Yadav was also addicted to drugs. His wife had left him around three months back because of his addiction. "He would spend all his earning on drugs and liquor. He used to bash his wife ruthlessly which is why she left him," another cop informed.
Since then Yadav had been staying alone in a rented room at the victim's residence. Yadav, who had slipped into depression after his wife left, had started drinking even more.
Gittikhadan police have registered a case of molestation and attempt to suicide against Yadav who is said to be critical.
