Accused is absconding
An intellectually disabled youngster was allegedly raped by her brother-in-law at Shamshabad, police said on Wednesday.
According to the police, the offence took place when the 20-year-old woman was sleeping alone in their house, while her mother and sister, both daily wagers, had gone to work. However, it came to light only on Tuesday when the woman was taken to hospital after she fell ill.
“Later, the victim narrated the incident to her mother, following which she lodged a complaint and a rape case was registered,” police said.The accused is absconding.

The Union and State governments provided support in several ways to the needy people, but private institutions should also extend help, especially to those requiring medical assistance, said C.P. Rajkumar, Managing Director, Nalam Multispeciality Hospital, here on Saturday. Speaking at a function to honour Inspector General of Police V. Balakrishnan and neurologist S. Meenakshisundaram with C. Palaniappan Memorial Award for their contribution to society and Nalam Kappom medical adoption of Type-1 diabetic children, he said the governments implemented numerous welfare programmes, but the timely help by a private hospital or a doctor in the neighbourhood to the people in need would go a long way in safeguarding their lives.
