UP Horror: Man Out On Bail In Kidnapping Case, Abducts The Same Girl And Rapes Her For A Month, Held

The increasing crimes against women are gradually solidifying the fact that society will continue to fail us regardless of all candle marches and safety protocols in place. A recent tale of a heinous crime from Uttar Pradesh came to light where a man who was previously jailed for abducting a girl got out on bail, kidnapped and raped the same teen girl for a month. He was arrested on Monday after the 17-year-old girl’s father filed a police complaint. The accused Veer Nath Pandey, a resident of Bhojpur district in Bihar, reportedly abducted the girl on August 5, 2024, and sexually assaulted her for a month.

According to reports, the initial complaint was filed in May 2024 by the girl’s father at the Koirauna police station. He alleged that his daughter was missing, leading to an FIR.

The police investigation led to the girl's recovery and Pandey’s subsequent imprisonment.

"After Pandey's release on bail, he abducted the victim while she was going to defecate. On September 2, Pandey abandoned the girl near Jangiganj railway station and fled. The girl approached the police the same day, alleging severe sexual abuse by Pandey over the past month,” said Inspector Manoj Kumar, in charge of the Koirauna police station.

“An FIR was filed against Pandey under the relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for rape and kidnapping, as well as under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act,” said the inspector.

According to Inspector Kumar, the victim's medical examination confirmed the rape.

“Pandey was apprehended on Monday at Itahara Chauraha, and further legal proceedings are underway,” he added.
