New Delhi: A 21-month-old girl was allegedly raped by a 40-year-old man from her neighbourhood in Delhi's Gandhi Nagar area of Shahdara, police said on Tuesday. The accused, who works as a tailor, has been arrested, they said.
The incident happened on Sunday evening when the accused took the girl to his home. Since the infant's father, who runs a tea stall in the area, knows the accused, he often let him play with the baby.
