Class 10 Rape Victim Delivers Baby In School Toilet

New Delhi: A 15-year-old Class 10 student delivered a premature baby girl in her school washroom on Thursday after she was allegedly raped by an auto driver for over a year.

The girl went to the government school in Delhi to give an exam on Thursday. She developed stomach ache and went to the washroom where she delivered the baby. The school management soon informed her parents who did not know the girl was pregnant. The girl was rushed to a hospital by the school authorities.

The incident came to light after the school administration lodged a complaint with police. The girl on questioning told the police that she was raped by her 51-year-old neighbor several times during the past one year. The accused used to give Rs500-800 to the girl asking her not to inform about his to anyone.

The police on Friday nabbed the accused Gaffar who is working as auto driver in Delhi. The accused confessed to police that he gave the girl some abortion pills after she told him about her stomach pain. "The pills she had taken created complications due to which the girl delivered the premature baby in 26th week," a police officer said.

The girl complained about her stomach pain many times but they ignored thinking it was some gastric related problem. Doctors stated that the condition of the victim and the baby is stable.
