The shocking details of sexual abuse, perpetrated over a long span of time, came to light after this.

Though the girl had been a victim of her father’s sexual abuse from eight standard, she didn’t tell this to anyone out of fear. In between, three youths, who are her neighbours, also abused her. Again, fearing bad consequences, she kept mum on what she was going through.

Her father and others tried their best to hide this fact but her uncle came to know about the matter. Being convinced of the atrocity committed on the girl, he soon asked her to lodge a complaint with the police.

After this, the girl herself reached the police station and filed a complaint. The girl is currently under the protection of her uncle. The girl is learnt to told the police that her mother was also aware of the sexual assault. As that is the case, the mother will also be made an accused in the case.
