Guwahati: In a horrific incident, an 11-year-old girl was allegedly raped multiple times by her father in Assam’s Nagaon district, the official said on Thursday.
The incident took place at their resident in Longjap under the Kachua police station area on September 20.
The accused father was taken into custody on Tuesday as a result of the victim’s mother’s complaint lodged and also was produced before a court on Wednesday.
According to sources, the victim’s mother complained to the police on September 27.
“After committing the crime, the accused father fled from his house”, the official said.
The official further added that “Hearing the whole incident, the girl’s mother approached locals, but failed to get a proper response.”
After receiving the complaint, the police immediately arrested the man on the same day itself.
The mother of the victim informed the police that her husband had earlier sexually abused his daughter and was even detained. He was later, however, released on bail.
