In a major breakthrough, the Teliamura Police in Tripura’s Khowai has been able to nab a contractor on charges of allegedly being involved in repeated sexual abuse of a minor.

Though the incident took place on February 11, 2018, it came to light recently as the alleged rapist threatened the victim of dire consequences if she reveals about the ghastly act.

The alleged rapist has been identified as Manoj Ghosh, who is a contractor by profession.

Sources said, “Taking advantage of the innocence of the minor girl, who went to meet her friend at Champai area under Khowai, was raped by Manoj Ghosh.”

“The accused threatened her to kill if she discloses about the incident of rape before anyone,” said sources, adding, “Since then, he continued to rape her.”

Sources further said, “Failing to get rid of Manoj Ghosh, the victim girl came to Bisalgarh at her relative’s house and later revealed everything before her parents.”

Without wasting time, the victim girl’s parents immediately lodged a police complaint with the Bisalgarh Women Police Station.

Based on the complaint, Bisalgarh Women Police registered a case 34/TLMS IPC 376 (2) (I)/506/4 under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO Act) 2012. The case was immediately transferred to Teliamura Police Station.

“Acting swiftly, the Teliamura Police under the leadership of the Sub-divisional Police Officer, Tapan Deb, nabbed the accused from his residence on Friday midnight,” informed sources.

The accused was further produced before the Khowai Sub-divisional Judicial Magistrate’s Court where the police sought to keep him under their custody. However, the court sent him to 14-day jail custody.

For the past few days, many incidents of crimes against women and children including rape have been reported from different parts including Dharmanagar and Sabroom and the people have demanded strong actions against the guilty.
