Dildar Shaikh and Taj Ansari

"Had the police supported me earlier, Dildar [Shaikh] would not have got the chance to flee," the 17-year-old survivor told a source, speaking about how the Kolsewadi cops slept on her complaint against Kalyan's dirty doctor Taj Ansari, and creepy chemist Dildar Shaikh — who was held on Friday — for two months, despite knowing that it falls under the stringent POCSO Act.

The complainant had approached the Kolsewadi police in October, when she was allegedly raped by Ansari and blackmailed by Shaikh. After Shaikh learnt of her visit to the police station, he threatened to ruin her sister's wedding. Since the Kolsewadi police weren't providing her with any support, despite hers being a case under the POCSO Act, she took back her complaint.
