When Reaction Officers arrived, the mother of the five-year-old child informed them that she was asleep in her home when her intoxicated husband arrived. Her twin son and daughter were in bed with her as well. The 37-year-old also told police that she woke up to find her husband raping her daughter.
According to Prem Balram, a spokesperson for RUSA, the woman forced the father off the child when he began assaulting her. He then ran away from the house in an unknown direction.

A female RUSA Member interviewed the child who confirmed that her father had sexually assaulted her,” said Prem Balram.
