The accused, identified as Pintu Joshi, was arrested after the survivor’s father filed a case against him.

What exactly happened

In the complaint filed, the 7-month-old's father said the baby was being looked after by his sister-in-law who is visually impaired.

The father, who works as a labourer, added that on returning home, he found the baby missing. His sister-in-law confirmed that Pintu had taken the baby about an hour ago and hadn’t returned since. The father panicked and began searching for her. After several hours, he found his daughter covered in blood in the middle of a football field, which is about a kilometre from their house.

Shame

The Kathua and Unnao rape cases have not even settled yet, and we’re hearing of rape cases, each more heinous than the other, every day

“This is a shameful act. We are prepared to take the strictest action in the matter to ensure that the child gets justice and no one dares to commit such a heinous act in the future,” said the chairperson of Rajasthan State Commission for Protection of Child Rights, Manan Chaturvedi.

According to a report by Indian Express, the baby is in a critical condition and is currently undergoing treatment.
