Rajkot: A 10-year-old girl with learning difficulties was raped allegedly by a resident of Sayla in Surendranagar district on Sunday. The accused, identified as Vijayrai Bhuya (35), was arrested on Monday.
The crime was committed in one of the shanties near Sayla railway station. Bhuya targeted the girl when she was alone.
After raping the survivor, Bhuya fled from the spot. When the girl’s mother returned, she saw that her daughter was writhing in pain. She was bleeding profusely from her private parts.
