The Inside Story
Stepfather Allegedly Rapes 14-Year-Old Girl in Mumbai
In a disturbing incident, a 14-year-old girl was reportedly raped by her stepfather multiple times at their residence in the suburban area of Malad, Mumbai. The Malwani police registered an FIR against the accused, Azeem Shaikh (35), following a complaint filed by the victim.
According to the police, Shaikh had been sexually abusing his stepdaughter since February. The first rape incident occurred earlier this year, and subsequent instances of sexual abuse took place when the girl's mother was away at work. Shaikh, who is the girl's mother's second husband, is now on the run as a manhunt has been launched to apprehend him.
Unable to bear the harassment, the victim sought refuge at her uncle's residence in the same area. When her mother and Shaikh tried to convince her to return home, she refused. This resulted in a heated argument, and the matter was reported to the police. As a result, the girl was sent to a children's remand home in Dongri for her safety.
During a routine check-up at the remand home, it was discovered that the girl had suffered sexual abuse. Subsequently, an inquiry was initiated, and the victim revealed that she had been raped by her stepfather since February. She also disclosed that she had been threatened and physically assaulted by Shaikh. The Malwani police have filed an FIR against him under various sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO Act), 2012.
