*AHMEDABAD*: A 13-year-old girl was abducted and allegedly raped in Naroda
by her stepfather's relative. The girl's aunt has filed a complaint against
the girl's stepfather for the incident and accused him of plotting her rape.

According to Naroda police, the girl, Komal (name changed), is a resident of
Naroda, and is mentally challenged. She had been living with her aunt after
her mother died last year. Komal's mother had married Gopi Dantani three
years ago. However, due to his lifestyle and unemployment, Komal was living
with her maternal aunt.

"As per the complaint, Gopi and his father Dashrath, both residents of
Isanpur, took Komal with them on September 12 on the pretext of visiting a
relative. The girl was then allegedly sent to Dipak Dantani, a relative of
Gopi, who raped her repeatedly between September 13 and 16. When Komal came
back, her aunt was furious and she later approached the police with the
complaint. We have sent the girl for a medical checkup at Civil Hospital,"
said a Naroda police official.
