Minor raped in Gauharganj, accused keeps misleading:Youth catching him in Bhopal says he hides his identity, gives wrong address and keeps denying about rape

Salman, the accused in the rape of a 6-year-old innocent girl in Gauharganj, Raisen, kept misleading for an hour and a half after being caught. He kept claiming to be a resident of Ashta. Not only that, he didn’t even tell his correct name. He kept identifying himself as Ansar. Local youths first caught him on Thursday night (November 27) in Bhopal’s Gandhi Nagar area. One of them, Rizwan, said that his friend Raja had informed him about it. Salman’s photo was viral on social media, so he recognized him. Salman had no identification documents
I was not there at that time. I immediately reached the spot. After that, I sent Salman’s picture via WhatsApp to policeman Rahul Guru, who is posted at Khajuri police station. He got it verified by Raisen police. In about half an hour, they arrived at the spot with a policeman named Dhruv. During this time, Salman remained with us. When asked to show documents, he did not have any document that could establish his identity, including an Aadhaar card. He denied being accused of rape, let alone having any knowledge of any rape incident in Raisen district. About an hour and a half later, Raisen police came to Bhopal. They took Salman with them, accompanied by Gandhi Nagar police. Rizwan stated that the person taken into custody was Salman, and as soon as this was confirmed, people started gathering outside the Gandhi Nagar police station. Before the crowd could grow, Salman was secretly dispatched with the Raisen police. How Salman absconded in Bhopal after the incident
After raping the girl, Salman reached Bhopal on November 22. On this day, he stopped for a while near 12 Number Stop Multi. Then he went to Bhopal Talkies. He spent the night near the graveyard. The next day, when he reached Kazi Camp, he bought food with the money he had and ate it. After this, for the next 3 days, November 24, 25, 26, he worked as a laborer at the DIG’s bungalow. He spent the nights outside the yellow building of Model Ground. The next day, on November 27, Salman bought liquor from Minal and reached Gandhi Nagar. While looking for a rented house here, local residents Salman, Abdul, and Asif spotted him. After this, they called Rizwan. After Rizwan arrived, a photo was sent to Constable Abdul Guru. Admitted to Hamidia after encounter, infection in leg
Salman, admitted to Hamidia Hospital in Bhopal, underwent surgery on his leg on Friday evening. His condition is stable and doctors have kept him under observation. After being discharged from the hospital, Raisen police will take him away. After this, important questioning will be done. Where and with whose help he spent his time absconding, how many days he had been in Bhopal, and how he reached there. However, in initial questioning, he told the police that he had come to Bhopal on foot. On Saturday evening, Salman was shifted from the emergency ward of Hamidia Hospital to a regular ward. His foot has developed an infection from the gunpowder of the bullet. A team of doctors is keeping him under observation. It is being reported that it will take time for him to fully recover. Meanwhile, Raisen police have taken him on a ten-day remand. After being discharged from the hospital, the police can also extend his remand period as per bail. Hindu organization demands action against those who provided shelter
On Saturday, workers of Maa Bhawani Hindu organization reached the office of ACP Umesh Tiwari. There, they filed a written complaint alleging that Salman was given shelter in their home by Baby, Wasim, and Sanam, who live in Sai Board, Bhopal. He stayed at their house until he was caught in Gandhi Nagar. The organization has demanded action after investigation. Said during interrogation – didn’t realize I would be identified
Meanwhile, Raisen police were taking him from Bhopal to Gauharganj. During interrogation on the way, he said that the girl seemed like a soft target to him. He didn’t realize that the matter would become so big and he would be identified. He wanted to abuse the girl and leave her, but when the girl started screaming, he also assaulted her out of fear of being caught. Seeing the girl’s condition worsen after the incident, he fled. He reached Bhopal via jungle paths, covering 11 miles. He spent nights on footpaths. With the little money he had, he survived by eating samosa, kachori, and poha. He continuously wore a mask to hide his identity. Wandering through outer routes, he reached Gandhi Nagar again and was hiding there until the night before his arrest.
