In a shocking incident that has sent shockwaves across the nation, a four-year-old girl was allegedly raped and murdered by her uncle in Shimla, Himachal Pradesh. The incident occurred in the Kotkhai area of Shimla, and the girl’s body was found dumped near their makeshift house. The family had gone out to work and upon their return, they discovered that the child was missing. They launched a search and found her slippers about 200 meters away from their house. Tragically, they also found her lifeless body nearby.
The family has accused the girl’s uncle, Deshraj, of committing the heinous crime. The police have arrested the accused and have registered a case of sexual assault and murder against him. Preliminary investigations suggest that the girl was sexually assaulted and strangled to death.
This incident comes just days after another horrific case in Uttar Pradesh, where a 35-year-old factory worker was arrested for raping a four-year-old girl in Shamli district. The accused had lured the child to a secluded spot on the pretext of giving her candy and then allegedly raped her.
In yet another shocking incident in Uttar Pradesh, a man in Chitrakoot district was arrested for allegedly raping his 13-year-old daughter. The victim lodged a complaint alleging that her father raped her in an inebriated state.
These incidents highlight the urgent need for stricter laws and harsher punishments for crimes against children. It is disheartening to see such heinous acts being committed against innocent children. The government must take immediate action to ensure the safety and protection of children in our country.
Parents and guardians must also be vigilant and take necessary precautions to safeguard their children. It is important to educate children about good touch and bad touch and create an environment where they feel comfortable speaking up about any form of abuse.
It is time for society as a whole to come together to fight against such heinous crimes and create a safe and secure environment for our children..
