Indian police said they had arrested the suspected rapist of a five-year-old girl who is battling for her life in hospital after a horrific attack in New Delhi.
The 25-year-old suspect, identified as Manoj Kumar, was held in the eastern Indian state of Bihar after he took shelter in his father-in-law’s home in a village 70 kilometres (43 miles) from local capital Patna, an official said.
Police say Kumar allegedly attacked his victim inside a locked room over a 48-hour period after abducting her Monday in a lower-middle class area of Indian capital New Delhi.
“It is an act of a monster,” Additional Director-general of Police Ravindar Kumar told AFP in Patna hours after the suspect was detained by a joint team of detectives from New Delhi and Bihar.
