Cuttack: The six-year-old girl, who was allegedly raped in Jagannathpur village under Salepur block of Cuttack district, continues to battle for life at SCB Medical College and Hospital here.
The girl was shifted to the paediatric intensive care unit on Monday night as her health condition turned very critical.
“The minor girl has been kept on ventilator and it cannot be predicted whether she will survive or not. However, all efforts are being made by the 13-member special team of doctors of six departments, including orthopaedic, radiology, neuro surgery, paediatric and surgery, to save her,” said one of the doctors treating the child at SCB.
There are injuries on her head, face, chest and private parts and scratches on the neck, the doctor added.
On April 21, the girl was rescued from a school veranda and rushed to a hospital in Salepur. She was later shifted to the SCB as her condition deteriorated.
The victim’s family members alleged that she was raped and an attempt was made to kill her.
Basing on the complaint, police had arrested Md. Mustafa and registered a case under Sections 376, 307, I (M) and POSCO Act against him.
