Priest elopes with minor, arrested
HT Correspondent, Hindustan Times
Muzaffarnagar, June 30, 2011
A priest in Baghpat district was arrested and booked for rape on
Thursday for allegedly eloping with a 17-year-old Dalit girl. A court
for trying cases on atrocities on scheduled castes and tribes has
remanded the priest in judicial custody. The date for the next hearing
has not been
fixed. Station house officer CP Kathoria said charges of rape were
lodged against the priest.
The girl has been sent to her family for a medical check-up.
About eight months ago, a woman contacted the priest to correct some
"defect" (mangali dosh) in the horoscope of the girl, who is her
brother's daughter. The priest assured the family he'd perform a
religious remedy for the girl.
On the pretext of 'puja', the priest started enticing the girl and
about seven months ago, he eloped with her. The girl's father then
registered an FIR against the priest. Subsequently the police were
able to trace the priest and the girl in Gurgaon.
