On Wednesday, the Uttar Pradesh police arrested one person named Bilal for raping and abusing his cousin in the public.

A case has been registered against the accused under sections 376, 323, 504, and 386 of the Indian Penal Code.

According to the reports, the Police arrested the accused named Bilal based on the complaint filed by the victim girl.

The victim girl who is a resident of the Pratap Vihar area in Ghaziabad mentioned in the complaint that the accused is her maternal sibling and is already married. “He is the resident of the Kaila Kheda area and has been frequently visiting our house for the past four years”, she said adding that she stays at home with her ill mother and three working brothers.

She noted that the accused Bilal took advantage of the unfavourable family situation and raped her four months ago. “I was alone at home that day. My mother keeps ill and that day my brothers too had left for their work early. I was all alone at home. Bilal came home that day and raped me. He also shot incriminating videos of brutal rape and later threatened me to post those on social media. He wanted to marry me and kept on forcing me to do so even after I had refused his proposal”, she said.

The victim girl noted that Bilal on August 29 forcefully took her to a restaurant and abused her.

He then began hitting me and shot the incident which went viral over social media”, the victim stated.

The complaint was filed by the victim girl on September 6 after which the Ghaziabad Police took immediate action against the accused identified as Bilal.
