New Delhi: A shocking incident came to light from Pune where a 17-year-old college-going girl has alleged that her father, grandfather and uncle had been raping and sexually harassing her for  the last six years.

The father has been held, and a case has been registered

The girl confessed her trauma before the Vishaka committee on sexual harassment at her college in her town. A case has been registered against the accused.

According to the police, the father has been held, and a case has been registered under sections 376 and 354 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012.

The victim, in her complaint, alleged when she was at her hometown in Uttar Pradesh between 2016 and 2018, she was raped multiple times by her uncle and also molested by her grandfather.

“After coming to Pune in 2018, the girl informed her father about the sexual assault incidents by writing on a chit. However, instead of acting against tormentors, the father also raped her on several occasions when her mother was not at home,” said the police officer.
