The family members of a girl believed to be mentally disturbed and allegedly sexually assaulted by a teacher of a primary school, in Ghansali, are agitated at the attitude of the police that has failed to arrest the accused even after so many days of the incident which occurred on April 25, this year.
The victim is seven months pregnant and her mother had filed a report with the police accusing a school teacher of sexually assaulting her daughter but the police have not shown any interest in arresting the accused who remains at large till date.
The father of the victim began a protest against the official apathic attitude in Ghansali on Tuesday.
Thousands of people in this area had boycotted polling in the parliamentary election this year to protest against the failure of the police to arrest the accused.
The police have also been accused of deferring action in this case as the accused teacher is said to be known to a State cabinet minister.
The victim was reported to be seven months pregnant according to the police and her statement was recorded in the court on May 2.
The residents of Ghansali are threatening mass protest against police inaction.
Around 2,200 voters from this region had boycotted the lok Sabha elections as mark of protest demanding the arrest of the accused teacher but the police is still groping in dark.
The locals have also accused the police of acting under political pressure due to the accused being reportedly related to a cabinet minister.
