A distraught father living in the RS Pura border area has shamed the ‘city of temples’ by allegedly raping his own daughter and brutally assaulting her.

The ‘shameful’ act allegedly committed by the father came to light when the ailing toddler was shifted to sub-district hospital in RS Pura after she fell ill.

During the routine check-up of the girl, the doctors attending on her found that she was sexually abused and immediately referred her to Gandhi Nagar hospital for expert opinion. At present the minor is undergoing treatment under the supervision of experts.

According to police, Sunil Kumar was detained on suspicion of alleged sexual assault of his three-year-old daughter on Thursday night but was later booked under Section 377 of RPC for allegedly committing sodomy.

The mother of the victim had eloped with her neighbour Purshottam Kumar over two years ago. The children since then had also been staying with the mother of Purshottam in RS Pura separately.

The children, police said, visited father on special occasions only. The father is suspected to have abused his daughter during one such visit on January 13, 2013.

According to Pushpa Devi, mother of Purshottam, Sunil had visited her house on January 13 and took his daughter with him for one day. She said after the girl returned home on January 14 she fell ill. “After waiting for a few days when their was no improvement in her condition I decided to consult doctors and shifted her to the sub-district hospital,” she said. It is there that the doctors advised her to shift the patient to Jammu.
