Police have arrested Sabin Chand, 33 of Bheri municipality-4 for his alleged involvement in raping a 13-year-old ninth grader of Bheri municipality-2. The police are also searching for another person, Rupak Chand from the same municipality. In a statement recorded at the District Police Office, the child’s mother said that her daughter was initially lured with Smartphone, money and watch. When the girl didn’t fall into the trap, they kidnapped and raped her for two days in a local hotel. “We arrested Chand based on the statement,” acting police chief of Jajarkot, Indra Jit Sunar said. He added that they had already initiated legal action against Chand, the alleged rapist. “We’ve also intensified our search to arrest Rupak Chand,” Sunar said. “Rupak has been accused of raping the child’s cousin.” However, the victims’ families have said that they’ve some local leaders and representatives were making efforts not to register the case against rape. The 13 year child had gone to Khalanga to find a room which she’d live in to pursue her education. “Two people came and said they’d help me find a room at a hotel in Shanti Chautara of Khalanga Bazaar. However, they held me for two days and raped me,” the child said. She added that they initially made efforts to lure her. However, when she didn’t fall into the trap, they threatened to murder her. Rupak promised the 15 year child that he'd marry her. Instead, she was raped by Rupak and Sabin for the same number of days. Following the incident, the families said that they were being pressurized to back off from the case and reconcile. “When my daughter didn’t return home after two days, we informed the police. The police found them in a hotel where they had been raped,” one of the victim’s father said. He maintained that the culprits must be booked. “My daughter has been raped in a locked room. Yet, some people want us to reconcile,” the father said in tears. He also repented the dire state where opinion leaders favored the rapists and asked the victims to reconcile. In tears, the mother of the 15 year child said, “I have no one and neither do I have sufficient money to fight the case. Who would fight for the justice of my child?” १३ वर्षीया बालिकालाई जाजरकोट सदरमुकामको एक होटलमा दुई दिनसम्म बन्धक बनाएर बलत्कार गरेको खुलेको छ । बालिकामाथि बलात्कारको अभियोगमा एकजना युवक पक्राउ परेका छन् । बालिकालाई जबरजस्ती करणी गरेको आरोपमा भेरी नगरपालिका–४ बोहराका ३३ वर्षीय सविन चन्दलाई प्रहरीले पक्राउ गरेको हो । घटनामा संलग्न सोही ठाउँका रुपक चन्दको खोजी भइरहेको प्रहरीले जनाएको छ । मोबाइल, पैसा र घडी दिन्छु भन्दै उनले बालिकालाई सुरुमा फकाएका थिए । बालिकाले नमानेपछि मारिदिने धम्की दिएर होटेलमा बन्धक बनाएर दुई दिनसम्म जबरजस्ती करणी गरेको भन्दै पीडित बालिकाका अभिभावकले दिएको जाहेरीका आधारमा चन्दलाई पक्राउ गरिएको जिल्ला प्रहरी कार्यालयका निमित्त प्रमुख प्रहरी निरीक्षक इन्द्रजीत सुनारले बताए । उनले आरोपी चन्दलाई जबरजस्ती करणी महलमा मुद्दा चलाउने प्रक्रिया सुरु गरिसकिएको बताए । ती बालिकासँगै उनकी सानीआमा नाता पर्ने १५ वर्षीया अर्की बालिकालाई करणी गरेको आरोप लागेका त्यही ठाउँका रुपक चन्दको खोजी भइरहेको प्रहरी निरीक्षक सुनारले बताए । होटेलको कोठामा बलात्कार गरिएकी १३ वर्षीया बालिकाको अभिभावकले दिएको जाहेरीका आधारमा एकजना पक्राउ परिसकेको र अर्का एकको खोजी भइरहेको प्रहरी निरीक्षक सुनारले बताए । घटना तीन दिनअघि भएको थियो । यता पीडित बालिकाका अभिभावकले भने अभियुक्तविरुद्ध मुद्दा नचलाउन स्थानीय नेता, केही जनप्रतिनिधि र पहुँचवालाले दबाब दिइरहेको बताएका छन् । आन्टीको पढाइका लागि बस्ने कोठा खोज्न खलंगा आएका बेला साउन ७ गते राति खलंगा बजारको शान्ति चौतारास्थित एक होटेलमा कोठा खोजिदिने भन्दै दुइ दिनसम्म करणी गरेको पीडित बालिकाले वताइन् । पीडित बालिकाका अभिभावकहरुले आफुलाई मुद्दा नदिन र मिलापत्र गर्न दबाब आइरहेको बताउँदै छोरीहरुको न्यायका लागि कसैले साथ नदिएको गुनासो गरेका छन् । घरबाट निस्किएका छोरी दुई दिनसम्म नआएपछि प्रहरीलाई खबर गरेर खोज्दै जाने क्रममा होटेलको कोठामा छोरीहरु बलात्कृत अवस्थामा भेटिएको पीडित बालिकाका बुवाको भनाइ छ ।
