A Court in Agra has sentenced a man to life imprisonment for raping a 6-year-old girl in 2013 & ordered that action be taken against the investigation officer, who is now the senior superintendent of police of Bareilly, for giving a clean chit to the accused, an official said on Monday.
The Court also imposed a fine of Rs 50,000 on the convict, Vipin Chauhan.
According to special public prosecutor Vimlesh Anand, Chauhan raped the minor girl on May 5, 2013, when her parents had gone to work. The family of the girl used to live on the property of Chauhan’s father on rent.
The family of the girl lodged a complaint at the local police station a day later.
A case was registered against Chauhan under provisions of the Indian Penal Code, Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act & the Scheduled Caste & Scheduled Tribe (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.
Prabhakar Chaudhary, the then additional superintendent of police & circle officer of Lohamandi who investigated the case, found no conclusive evidence & submitted a final report in the case on June 14, 2013.
In its order passed recently, the court directed the Director General of Police of Uttar Pradesh to take action against Chaudhary.
SSP Chaudhary could not be reached for comment over the phone.
