RAJANPUR: A 13-year-old rape victim gave birth to a child, which will be the sole evidence that will lead the court to the alleged rapist.
The victim’s family said that the girl used to take tuitions at a house in the neighbourhood where 40-year-old Kashif allegedly raped her.
When the family went to court the case could not proceed further due to lack of evidence. It was then the girl’s father decided that he needed to bring his daughter’s unborn child in this world.
The minor girl gave birth on November 17, 2016 following which the local court had ordered a DNA test to determine parenthood.
However, the key accused in the case failed to appear in the court during the last two proceedings. The hearing will resume on March 16 (today).
