A five-year-old girl, a resident of Kada Dham Police station area, was allegedly raped by her 13-year-old relative, police said.
A 13-year-old boy has been apprehended for allegedly raping a five-year-old girl related to him, police said on Friday.
The boy was apprehended under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act by a "child welfare police officer welfare" after the preliminary probe into a rape case FIR lodged against him, Kaushambi's Superintendent of Police Hemraj Meena said.
The police produced him before a children court which remanded him to a Children Welfare Home in Prayagraj as no such child care home is there in Kaushambi district.
Detailing the incident, SP Meena said, "A five-year-old girl, a resident of Kada Dham Police station area, was allegedly raped by her 13-year-old relative on May 12. Initially, a case of physical violence was lodged regarding the case." However, the minor girl was rushed to a hospital on Thursday after her health deteriorated.
