RapeNilagiri: The accused in rape case of a four-year-old girl of Nilagiri in Balasore was arrested by police from Bhadrak on Monday.
The accused has been identified as Nityachandan Jena (24).
“Police managed to nab Jena from Bhadrak town on the basis of a tip-off received from reliable sources about his presence in the area. Seeing the cops, he attempted to flee the place but was overpowered by the raiding team”, Nilagiri police station inspector-in-charge Ramesh Chandra Singh informed.
