Rape Case Surfaces in Nagpur After Accused’s Stepdaughter Conceived

Police have registered a case in connection with a horrifying crime that took place in a village in Nagpur district. The case came to light after a 22-year-old man allegedly raped his stepmother, resulting in her pregnancy. The incident is said to have occurred last November. Since the victim was the accused’s stepmother, family members initially refrained from reporting the matter. However, everything changed once she became pregnant.

Police have launched an investigation into the case. It is reported that the victim disclosed her pregnancy to family members last month. Following medical examination, her pregnancy was confirmed, prompting the family to file a complaint with the police and register a case. A chargesheet has been filed against the arrested youth under Section 376 (rape) of the Indian Penal Code.

The incident occurred in a village under the jurisdiction of the Nagpur Rural Police. The victim became the accused’s stepmother after her father remarried. Since the accused is also a family member, the case has taken on added complexity. Police are expediting the investigation to ensure justice for the victim.
