Police question rape victim's classmates

The language used in the email showcases that he is pleading not-guilty and would like to offer his side of the story to the cops.

Mumbai: The MIDC police, who is probing the case of the alleged rape of a three-year-old minor girl studying in a IB School based in Andheri, have questioned the victim’s classmates, who have allegedly revealed that their friend was never taken anywhere out of the class. While the preliminary report of the victim’s test showed no external injury due to the alleged rape, they are still probing the case with all possible angles, and awaiting the accused founder-director’s arrival in the country.

Sources in the MIDC police station told The Asian Age that since this case states that the 30-year-old female teacher, who is also one of the accused in this case, allegedly escorted the victim from her classroom to the accused person’s cabin, the prime witnesses in the case are the other three-year-olds who were the victim’s classmates. So when the police questioned them in the presence of their parents, the victim’s friends and classmates said that they never saw her leaving the classroom with the accused female class teacher and going upstairs to the accused founder-director’s cabin.

When the police had asked the parents to ask their kids in confidence about the previous occurrence of such incidents, the kids said they never saw anything of such sort.

Speaking to The Asian Age, Navinchandra Reddy, Deputy Commissioner of Police Zone 10 said, “The co-accused class teacher has been called in for questioning many times and she said that she would never do such a thing as she herself is a mother to a toddler.”

The accused founder-director’s wife had also come to the MIDC police station and shown an email sent by husband that clearly stated that he was to arrive in the country in the fourth week of June and would clear all the misunderstandings created by the victim’s mother, who is also the complainant. The language used in the email showcases that he is pleading not-guilty and would like to offer his side of the story to the cops.
