An eight-year-old girl was raped by her neighbour here, police said Sunday. The attacker has been arrested.
The victim was playing outside her house when she was lured by Mohsid, 21, to his room, a rented accommodation next to their house, Saturday afternoon.
“On hearing the girl’s screams, the mother rushed to Mohsid’s house and found her daughter crying. She took her to a nearby hospital where she was discharged after the treatment,” said a police officer.
Mohsid, a labourer, was later arrested from his house, said the officer.
