Imphal/Lamka, October 30 2014 :
In an apparent exhibition of sheer macho-manship, a 15 year-old boy has allegedly raped three minor girls in a short span of 12 days.
Besides registering three separate cases against the accused boy under Section 376 IPC and Sections 4&5 of POCSO Act, 2012 at the women PS, CCpur, medical examinations of the minor victims were conducted today at RIMS.
The boy has been instructed to remain put at his home.
Sources said that the boy allegedly raped a five-year old girl at Tangnuam village on Oct 7 .
On October 19, he raped two 4/5 years old girls at Hebron Veng, New Lamka.
Sources said, the victims' families have reportedly established the boy's criminal act on October 21 when he was caned and interrogated.
Initially, families of the three girls, whose mothers are sisters, sought to settle the matter on traditional lines.
But their engagements failed as the boy's family reportedly objected to the act of torturing him and turned up with Rs 1000 against a demand of Rs 1 lakh.
The incidents were exposed before the public late yesterday, which the families said was done after it was confirmed by a doctor that the private parts of the children have injury marks.
As all the girls have been reportedly experiencing discomfort or bleeding in their private parts, the police took them to Imphal today and conducted medico-legal examinations.
