Minor Trying To Help The Police Nab Her Rapists Gets Raped Again Because Of Their Botched Plans

An assistant police inspector of the Jalna police was suspended for dereliction of duty while handling the rape of a minor. The inspector had used the minor and her parents to trap the suspects but failed in the attempt to arrest them, which resulted in another rape attempt.

Jalna police said a minor girl had befriended a 20-year-old man, both from Jalna, about 15 days ago through a social networking site. The two soon exchanged their phone numbers and decided to meet at Nava Road near State Reserve Police Force area, a secluded spot, on July 7 around 8 pm.

While the two were interacting, a couple of men claiming to be cops arrived at the spot and allegedly tried to molest the minor and even snatched her mobile phone. She was saved after some passersby and a forest department person intervened, the police said.
