JAIPUR: A seven-year-old girl who had gone to attend a marriage ceremony at Maluki village in Bharatpur district was allegedly raped by unknown persons during wee hours on Sunday. The girl is in a critical condition and was referred to SMS hospital.
The incident came to light when the victim was found in a serious condition on Monday morning in the farms by a school teacher, nearly 1 km away from the wedding venue. The girl was rushed to a nearby government hospital in Bharatpur. Her parents who had been frantically looking for her since Sunday evening were informed about the incident.
"Prima facie it appears that the girl was raped. The crime was done by a person or a group of persons who abducted her and raped is yet to be verified. She is not unable to narrate whatever happened to her as her condition is not good. We have brought her to SMS hospital," said a senior police officer of Kaithwara police station.
Her parents told the police that she was missing from 10 pm on Sunday and they were looking for her. Throughout Sunday night the girl's relatives kept searching for her but she was found on Monday morning.
"The medical examination of the girl by the doctors at Bharatpur has confirmed she was raped. There are some clues that she was raped by a middle-aged person, however we are waiting for concrete clues," the officer added.
However, the police have rounded up a few persons and are searching for the people who attended the wedding and went missing from the marriage venue. After the news spread at Maluki which is a Meo-dominated village the locals shouted slogans against the police and district authorities. The district administration, Bharatpur and senior police officers also went to the place to intervene and assured the angry mob that culprits would be behind bars soon.
