The incident took place late Tuesday evening when the infant was lying on a cot inside her house. Her mother was cooking dinner, while her father was occupied with domestic chores.
According to Bewar police station in-charge Anil Kumar Singh, the accused, who lived in the neighbourhood and was known to the family, entered the house and started playing with the baby. He then carried her outside. Since the family was familiar with him, they did not suspect any wrongdoing.
Around half an hour later, the accused returned, placed the infant back on the cot and walked away, police said.
“The baby was crying inconsolably. When her mother went to pacify her, she noticed severe bleeding from the child’s private parts and raised an alarm,” Inspector Singh said.
The family immediately rushed the child to the district hospital, where doctors referred her to Saifai Medical College in critical condition. She is currently undergoing treatment there, the officer added.
Based on a complaint filed by the victim’s father on Wednesday, an FIR was registered against Jetendra under relevant provisions of the law, leading to his subsequent arrest.
