Demon In Disguise: POCSO Case Against Man For Sexually Abusing His Daughter

Puducherry, April 15  : It is just not believable. A father can dip down to such a beastly low to prey on his own 5 year old daughter .

Police on Thursday registered a case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act against a 32-year-old man for allegedly sexually abusing his five-year- old daughter at Bahour near here. According to police, a few months back Satheesh Priyan residing at Reddiyarpalayam was arrested under POCSO Act for sexually assaulting a minor girl and was lodged in the central prison here. Some days ago, he came out on a conditional bail and went to his house where his wife refused to entertain him. Coming to know that his wife had sent their daughter to relative’s house at Bahour, he went there and pleaded that he wanted to meet his daughter. The relatives allowed him to meet the girl and stay there. Two days back, the girl complained of pain in several parts of her body and on inquiry it came to know that she was sexually abused. The relatives approached the Child Welfare Committee (CWC) and the mother of the child lodged a complaint with the Bahour police. Police registered another case under the POCSO Act and are on the look out for Satheesh who is absconding.
