Earlier, on October 19, a man in Uttar Pradesh's Ghazipur was arrested for allegedly raping his minor daughter.

The woman said she was initially not aware of the crime, but when she finally came to know about it, she tried to talk to her husband to avoid going to the police.
However, as the man did not mend his ways, and continued committing the crime, his wife filed a complaint against him for allegedly harassing and raping their daughter.
Similarly, a case of gang rape was lodged against jailed MLA Vijay Mishra, his son Vishnu Mishra and another relative in Bhadohi.
A woman, in her mid-thirties, lodged the report at the Gopiganj police station, alleging that Mishra sexually assaulted her several times at gunpoint in 2014. She said that his son Vishnu Mishra and his relative Vikas Mishra also raped her.
