New Delhi, April 25 (IANS) In yet another shocking crime, two minor sisters were allegedly raped by their mother’s paramour who was living in their house here, police said Thursday.
The accused, identified as Rakesh Mishra, 35, a motor mechanic, has been arrested.
“The man had been staying in the victims’ house in Shahbad Dairy area in north Delhi for the past one year and raped the sisters aged 13 and 11 years several times,” a senior police officer told IANS.
