8-yr-old raped by 50-yr-old man
An eight-year-old girl was raped allegedly by a 50-year-old man in Pashchim Akur Takurpara area of the town.
The victim’s grandfather filed a case with Tangail Model Police Station on Tuesday.
The girl is a Class I student of a local school.
According to the case statement, the girl along with her grandfather and grandmother lives in a rented house in the area as her father, a CNG driver, and mother stay in Dhaka.
The victim’s neighbour Bachchu Miah, a cook by profession, raped the girl after getting her alone in the house on Sunday.
House owner Helal Fakir, councillor of the municipality, allegedly tried to settle the matter by giving Tk 60,000 to the girl’s family on behalf of Bachchu.
But the girl’s family refused it and admitted her to Tangail General Hospital on the night on September 2.
Contacted, Helal refuted the allegation.
Police were raiding different areas to arrest Bachchu, said Sub-Inspector Amir Hamza.
