Puri, A five-year-old girl, who was allegedly raped on the rooftop of her house in Odisha’s Puri town, is battling for life at SCB Medical College and Hospital in Cuttack, the PTI reported.

According to sources, the incident took place around 11 am on Sunday. Finding the girl alone at home, the accused, identified as Mahesh Mohanty (35), allegedly took the girl to the rooftop and allegedly raped her. He is an acquaintance to her family and had been absconding since then.
