3-year-old snatched from railway station, found raped A three-year-old girl who was sleeping with her father on a railway platform in MP’s Damoh, was abducted, raped and dumped bleeding near a community hall on Tuesday night. The child is now battling for life as the brutal sexual assault has damaged her intestines. Sources said her father woke up around midnight and found the girl missing. He immediately approached RPF. “We referred him to GRP,” said Awdesh Mishra, SI (RPF), Damoh. GRP reportedly tried to search for her, but in vain. On Wednesday morning, a local resident was out on his morning walk when he came upon the chilling sight of the child covered in blood. He informed police, who took her to hospital. A rape case was registered after doctors detected injuries to her private parts. “The girl was sleeping outside the station with her father, who was apparently drunk. There was no delay on part of police in taking action,” said Damoh SP Vivek Agrawal. “We have some leads which cannot be disclosed. The accused will be arrested soon,” said the SP. The survivor belongs to a nomadic family. That wasn’t the only horror of the day. A six-year-old girl was allegedly abducted by a 60-year-old man in Bhind but rescued before he could rape her. And in Balaghat, a 20-year-old survived a rape and murder bid. -PTC News
