Thane: In a shocking incident, the police have arrested a 50-year-old man from Badlapur township in the district for allegedly raping his grand-daughter.

The 18-year-old survivor, who lived with her parents at Jaipur in Rajasthan, had come to Badlapur last month to stay with her grandparents for some time, Badlapur (East) police station’s senior inspector D P Rajbhoj said today.

 

 

On July 1, when her grandmother went out for some work, the accused locked the girl inside the house. He then allegedly pushed her to the ground and raped her, he said.

The girl’s grandparents are construction labourers who keep moving from one place to another for work, he said.

On the night of July 3, the traumatised girl escaped from her grandparents’ house. In a bid to go to her parents’ home in Rajasthan, she boarded a local train from Badlapur and then came to Bandra railway station.

 

 

The Railway Protection Force (RPF) personnel on duty at Bandra station spotted her and upon enquiry, she told them about her ordeal, Rajbhoj said.

The RPF personnel then took her to the Thane police.

On July 4, the Badlapur police in Thane registered an offence against the accused under IPC sections 376, (for punishment of rape), 323 (for voluntarily causing hurt) and 506 (criminal intimidation), he said.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
