Brother-in-law spikes drink & molests teen

SR

A teenager native of Uttarakhand has alleged that her brother-in-law had molested her. She was in town to attend the birthday party of her nephew in December last year.

The incident was reported from Chandni Chowk area. In her complaint, the girl said her sister’s husband had also taken a few objectionable photographs when she was out cold. The complaint was lodged at Kotwali police station. The victim told police Shiv Kumar, who married her elder sister in December 2011, sent these objectionable pictures to her elder brother as well.

“The accused Shiv Kumar has been arrested following the complaint and a manhunt launched for his brothers Uma Shankar and Ram Shankar,” said a senior police officer. “A party was organised to celebrate the first birthday of the son of her sister and the very next day, according to her complaint, Shiv Kumar offered her a spiked cold drink. Then Kumar and his brothers took turns to molest her. When she woke up, Shiv Kumar showed her objectionable pictures threatening to make them public if she breathed a word to anyone,” the officer added.

In her complaint, police said, the victim had also alleged that Shiv Kumar had threatened to kill her elder sister and their son if she dared rat him and his brothers out.

However, Shiv Kumar still sent the said pictures to her elder brother who then asked her about the incident and decided to intervene by taking her to Kotwali police station to lodge a formal complaint in the matter.
