A five-year-old girl died mysteriously in Hyderabad as her parents complained to police that their daughter was raped before being murdered, 24NewsHD TV channel Friday reported.
Police said that the incident occurred in Faqir Ke Par area of Hyderabad district, adding that it was too early to declare the death of the girl named Anabiya a rape-cum-murder incident.
Parents and other members of the girl’s family maintained that her body was carrying torture marks, asserting that she was murdered after being raped.
Police, on the other hand, rejected the claim of the girl’s parents and stated that they had come to a local hospital for the treatment of the girl who was hurt.
“They did not complain about rape of the girl,” police said and added that legal action would surely be taken if evidence of the alleged rape was found.
Meanwhile, the hospital management said that the alleged rape of the girl would be ascertained in a medical report.
