A 30-year-old man is on run after raping his 14-year-old stepdaughter in Malvani. The incident came to light during a medical check up at a private remand home in Dongri where the girl is currently lodged. The teenager revealed her ordeal to the medical officer upon coaxing.

Officials from Malvani police stations said Azim Sheikh (30) a resident of Madh, managed to escape from the clutches of the police team that had gone to arrest him yesterday from his residence. Though the medical report of the girl was made official on June 7, the FIR was filed only on Monday night.
