Mother of 10-yr-old Rohtak girl raped by stepfather wants husband to be set free
She said she did not believe her daughter when she told her that her stepfather had raped her many times. “When he (her husband) agreed to have done it, only then could I believe it had happened.
The rape and impregnation of a 10-year-old girl in Haryana’s Rohtak allegedly by her stepfather might have shocked India but the victim’s mother wants the accused freed to take care of the impoverished family.
The mother doesn’t believe her husband – the brother of her first husband, who fathered the rape victim – is innocent but prioritises her livelihood concerns.
“Please set my husband free. These NGOs and activists promising big things will not take care of me and my children for life. They will go within two-three days. My husband will take care of us,” she told HT.
