MHB Colony police has arrested a 20-year-old electrician for raping his neighbour’s three-year-old daughter. According to the police, the accused, Vinod Jaiswal, was treated as a family member and would often take the girl out to play.


The girl’s father is a driver and is usually not at home. Jaiswal was an electrician, who did odd jobs, was treated as a brother by the girl’s mother. The girl would also address him as ‘mama’ (uncle).


On Sunday night, the girl’s father was out and her mother was busy with household work. The accused took the girl out and gave her chocolates.


He then raped her and later left her outside her house. The mother became suspicious when she found stains on the child’s clothes and her changed behaviour, and she informed her husband.
