Sexually abused for 8 years, Kerala girl chops off rapist's genitals

Hari, a seer at Panmana Ashram is alleged to have abused the girl repeatedly at her residence. Shockingly, in her complaint to the police, the girl has alleged that her mother was in the know of things but did not do anything to protect her. Abused for eight years at her own house, the girl decided to fight back and mutilated her rapist.

The Kerala police have booked Hari under IPC section 376 and various sections under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences act. The ashram with which the man was associated has distanced itself from the incident. The ashram authorities that referred to the rapist as 'swamy' claimed that he had left the premises eight years ago and they were not in the know of where he was.

Chief Minister of Kerala, Pinarayi Vijayan, hailed the girl for 'doing the right thing'. Vijayan claimed that the girl had defended herself. He also assured that stringent punishment would be meted out to the rapist seer. The Kerala police took the mother of the survivor into custody on Saturday.
