Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: A three-year-old girl was allegedly sexually abused by a 50-year-old man in Kamakshipalya police station limits. The incident took place on Saturday evening.

According to police, the victim is the daughter of a construction worker hailing from Villupuram district of Tamil Nadu.

The family of the construction worker and their relatives live in separate huts on a vacant land on KHB Colony Main Road in Kamakshipalya police station limits. On Saturday evening, Kannan (50) allegedly took the girl to a secluded area near the huts and sexually abused her, the police said. Kannan is the maternal uncle of the girl's mother.

After her parents returned home from work, the girl complained of pain. The same night they left to Villupuram. As the girl was still writhing in pain, her parents took her to a doctor in Villupuram. After medical examination they learnt that she had been sexually abused.

The couple returned to Bangalore on Monday and lodged a complaint with the police. The Kamakshipalya police have registered a case and are on the lookout for Kannan.
