RAJKOT: A minor girl has lodged a rape complaint against a 23-year-old youth who impregnated her after getting engaged with her. The accused, however, called off the engagement later, prompting the victim to approach the police.
Police said the 17-year-old victim, a resident of Ramapir Chokadi in Gandhigram, has accused Jitendra Danger of raping her.
"Both the accused and the victim are cousins and were engaged after their parents learnt about their affair eight months ago. After the engagement, Jitendra took the girl to Chotila temple where he married her in secret. He made a physical relationship with the victim first in Chotila and then in Rajkot. As per the victim's allegation, the accused raped her repeatedly for 15 days. The couple was to get married in Diwali this year. However, Danger's parents called off the engagement," an investigating official of Rajkot police said.
Four days ago, the victim was tested positive of pregnancy and her parents approached the police with the complaint.
