The father of the victim accused his neighbour of raping his daughter. He told the media at a local hospital that he had brought his daughter for treatment a few days ago after he found her bleeding. Subsequent medical tests confirmed that she had been raped, said the father.
The victim, he said, had pointed to one of the neighbours.
The father, a farmer, demanded the government to provide him justice. According to him, police were reluctant to file a case and only took action after the media approached them for their version on the case.
A doctor at the hospital, requesting anonymity, confirmed to DawnNewsTV that the girl had been raped.
