Rape Accused Swallowed This Creepy Crawly To Avoid Getting Arrested

New Delhi: A man, accused of abducting and raping a teenage girl, allegedly swallowed a lizard in police custody because he did not want to go to jail. The incident came to light when his condition worsened and the police took him to Bhitargaon community health centre from where the doctors referred him to Lala Lajpat Rai Hospital in Kanpur.

On June 14, the girl’s father, a resident of a village in the Sadh police station area, informed the police that his 18-year-old daughter had been taken away by one of their women relatives. Police registered a case on the father’s complaint and started investigating the matter. Police later traced the location of the girl to Bengaluru.

A police team caught a man and rescued the girl on Sunday, News18 reported.

During interrogation, the man identified himself as Mahesh Kumar, 24, a resident of Kishanpur village in Fatehpur district. In the statement given by the girl to the police, she said that she was abducted and raped.

Later, the accused, Mahesh, caught and ate the lizard while in lockup.
