Meanwhile, the funeral of the minor girl was offered today at Bengali Para ground in the area, a day after the father said that he would not bury his daughter till the justice is served.
The father while recalling the rape and murder incident said when he returned home from work, he found the door locked from inside. Later, he jumped inside his house from a neighbour’s wall and found the body of his daughter hanging with the ceiling.
While refusing to bury his daughter, the father demanded the arrest of persons involved in the heinous crime. “The girl was home alone as her mother had left the family in the recent past,” he added.
In response to a question, the man refused to cast doubt, saying that he has no differences with anyone. He also criticised the police for not taking the matter seriously.
