A painful incident related to a 14-year-old girl has come to light in Hyderabad. Actually, the innocent girl was facing rape by her father for many years. When she told her mother about the abuse, she was scolded. Then her neighbor uncle and aunt came forward to support her. Even in September 2023, when her father raped her again, the minor girl approached her uncle for help.

 

When the mother returned home and came to know about the incident, she reported it to the police. However, during the trial, the mother blamed her daughter and even claimed that the allegations were fabricated. The mother said, the girl wanted her uncle and aunt to adopt her so she made up this story.

 

Father was sentenced

"Though a case was registered based on the mother's written complaint, she later denied registering it and claimed that the police never questioned her," a police officer said. Despite intense cross-examination, neighbours corroborated the girl's statements. As a result, the Twelfth Additional Sessions Court in Nampally sentenced the 38-year-old father to life imprisonment, and awarded a compensation of Rs 5 lakh to the girl.

 

The girl's mother gave such a statement

On the night of the incident, the girl ran away from her father and informed her neighbour uncle, who warned the accused. Initially, the victim's mother testified that the neighbour woman wanted to adopt the girl. Later, during cross-examination, she alleged that the neighbour only wanted the girl to do domestic work in exchange for better food and clothing. "The statements of the minor girl's mother during investigation directly contradict her initial testimony," the police officer said, citing the court's observations.
