City cops fail to arrest rapist of minor girl

Police could not arrest the rapist three days after he had raped a six-year-old minor girl leaving her seriously injured in the city.
The victim, a student of class one at Aparajeyo Bangladesh School, resides at the slum of Sattar Mollah at Section-12 in Mirpur.
Victim's mother, a garment worker, said one Halim alias Halan violated the girl after finding her alone in the house on Monday.
Locals detained Halim who was also identified by the victim as rapist.
But an influential quarter got Halim released and compelled her mother not to file any case, MA Hannan, a teacher of the victim, told this correspondent.
He alleged that police did not arrest the rapist although they told them immediately.
Pallabi police said they were not informed of the incident.
According to hospital sources, the victim was brought to One-stop Crisis Centre at Dhaka Medical College and Hospital yesterday with bleeding from her injured organ.
A doctor at the centre told The Daily Star that she was a rape victim.
