BAREILLY: An UP Police sub-inspector allegedly raped a 16-year-old girl inside Kadar Chowk police station complex after she was "rescued" from her "kidnapper" in Tamil Nadu and brought to Badaun. The case came to light when she recorded her statement before the Juvenile Justice Board while being handed to her family. Two senior police officers have been tasked with investigating the case.
In her statement, the girl claimed she eloped with her boyfriend on June 9. Her family had filed a kidnaping case as she was a minor.
A police team traced her to Tamil Nadu and "rescued" her. The girl alleged a sub-inspector harassed her in the train when she was being brought back. After they reached Kadar Chowk on June 21, the cop took her to his room and raped her.
He also threatened to send her to jail if she told anyone. On June 23, she was sent to a One Stop Centre (OSC), where she was again threatened to remain quiet. OSC provides support and assistance to women affected by violence through a single centre offering medical, legal, police, counselling and shelter services.
Budaun SSP Brijesh Kumar Singh directed Ujhani circle officer (CO) Devendra Singh to probe into the case. The CO reviewed CCTV footage at the police station and recorded statements of two constables (one a woman) who had accompanied the sub-inspector to Tamil Nadu. The accused cop, who was transferred to Shahjahanpur, was asked to come to Budaun and record his statement.
