Mumbai- Rape“Kasim Hamid Shaikh allegedly used to rape the 14-year-old repeatedly at his house in Evai village in the district over a period of time,” a police official said. He was apprehended yesterday after the girl lodged a complaint against Shaikh with the help of some locals, the official said, adding that the accused was booked under Sec 376 (rape) of the IPC. Police said the girl’s mother lived with Shaikh in the village after their second marriage.

“The victim fled the house as she was unable to bear the torture and was spotted by some locals who knew her in neighbouring Kalyan,” Borande said. The girl has been sent for a medical examination.
