Alappuzha: A woman was arrested on Saturday for allegedly burning her four-and-a-half-year-old son’s buttocks and legs with a hot steel spatula at their home in Kayamkulam, police said.

The incident occurred on September 22, and the woman was booked on the same day under various provisions of the Juvenile Justice Act and the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for causing hurt to the child, according to police.

An officer from the Kanakakunnu police station, where the FIR was registered, explained that the woman became angry at her son for defecating in his pants and inflicted the injuries using the hot steel spatula.

When she took the child to the hospital, she claimed that he had sat on a hot stove, which caused the injuries. However, her in-laws revealed the alleged cruelty on her part, leading the police to register an FIR against her.

**16-Year-Old Girl Allegedly Raped by Distant Relative in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh**

Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh): A 16-year-old girl was allegedly raped by a distant relative in Madhya Pradesh’s Gwalior district. The accused, Pawan Kushwaha, lured her under the pretext of visiting a temple but instead took her to a nearby forest and sexually exploited her. He also recorded obscene videos of the girl and used them to blackmail her.

According to reports, the crime took place in the Chinaur area of Bhitarwar. The incident began when Kushwaha, who is a distant relative of the victim, used to visit her house frequently. Police reports reveal that Kushwaha confessed his love for the minor and promised to marry her.

Taking advantage of the victim being alone at her sister’s house, Kushwaha allegedly sexually exploited her and recorded obscene videos. When the girl stopped meeting him, he started threatening to make the photos and videos viral.

The crime escalated further when Kushwaha arrived on his bike to visit the minor again. He lured her with the promise of a visit to the Dhumeshwar temple. However, instead of heading to the religious site, he took her to a nearby forest where he raped her once again.

Frightened by the assault and ongoing blackmail, the girl confided in her family. They promptly lodged a formal complaint against the accused at Chinaur police station.

Acting swiftly on the complaint, the police registered cases under the Rape and POCSO Act and launched a manhunt. Following a tip-off from an informer, authorities tracked Kushwaha to his brother-in-law’s residence in Chak Kishanpur village, where he was apprehended.

Station in-charge Shailendra Gurjar took immediate action and arrested the accused. CSP Gwalior Robin Jain stated, “The heinous crime was committed by the victim’s distant relative, whom she had known for the last two years. The girl, who stayed in a hostel, was raped twice.”

The police have assured that the accused will be dealt with strictly as per the law. The investigation is ongoing, and further updates will be provided as the case develops.
