The mother of the victim, who filed a police complaint, has said that the man was in a relationship with a girl studying in Class 10 for a year, and allegedly forced her to have sex with him several times. On finding that the girl was pregnant, the accused got her a pregnancy kit to get a test done.

The duo got the abortion pills that the man forced the girl, as a result of which, the girl underwent an abortion, the complainant has said.
The girl’s mother also told the police that there was a change in her daughter’s behavior a few days later.
