The victim, a minor, was tortured for over a year by family, apart from being sexually assaulted
For the 'crime' of discovering her father in bed with her aunt, 16-yearold Nasreen had to pay an inexplicable price.
She was tortured for over a year by her own father who also allegedly sexually assaulted her on numerous occasions, even allowed their housemaid's brother to participate in the heinous crime.
Acid attacks
It was only discovered later that the father had an illicit affair with their housemaid too, and would frequently threaten to throw acid on his daughter's face if she didn't treat the maid like her own mother.
The victim, a resident of Vasanthnagar, was reportedly being harassed by her father Wasim, aunt Muskaan, the maid Firdouse, and her brother Tanveer.
Unable to cope with Wasim's illicit affairs, his wife (Nasreen's mother) is said to have left him a few months ago.
One fine day almost a year ago, when Nasreen (then 15) returned home, she was shocked to see her father in bed with his brother's wife.
Death threat
She immediately tried to run away from the house, but her father reportedly held on to her and threatened to kill her if she disclosed the matter to her mother.
Fearing harm to her and her mother, Nasreen kept quiet about the incident.
This silence proved costly.
It is alleged that he would forcibly make her watch him have sex with her aunt on several occasions, besides molesting Nasreen, an investigating officer said.
He reportedly forced her to keep the bathroom door open while she bathed, and enter the room when she changed her clothes.
This went on for almost a year and Nasreen's father and the aunt regularly threatened to pour acid on her face if she even hinted about his illicit re lationship with her aunt to anyone.
Unending atrocities
Subsequently, when she discovered that her father was also having an affair with the maid, the latter's brother exploited the opportunity of letting his sister carry on with the illicit affair in exchange for molesting Nasreen and sexually exploiting her.
The victim approached the police and gathered the courage to narrate her plight, the officer said.
Both the men have been booked under sections 8 and 12 of the POCSO Act along with section 354 and 506 of the IPC. "The victim has given us her statements; and the case is still under investigation as it is highly complicated," the officer added.
Sandeep Patil, DCP (Central), told Bangalore Mirror that there was a large history to the case.
"Our investigations revealed that the victim's mother left home a few months ago, claiming she was being harassed by the accused. It is then that the sexual advances towards the victim increased, according to her statements.
There appear to be many disturbing twists to this case, which we are thoroughly investigating. Everyone connected with the incident is being summoned and questioned before we can take any action," he said.
