Minor raped by father, filmed by mother in Kutch, both arrested
A 14-year-old girl in Anjar, Kutch, has alleged that her father raped her five times between 15 September and 1 October 2026, in her mother's presence. The attacks allegedly followed a beating and confinement after she was caught talking to a friend on the phone. Her mother is also accused of taking nude photographs of her during one assault.
The girl first called the police emergency number 112 on 29 September but could not be traced because her parents switched off her phone. She called again on the morning of 2 October, and police brought her to Anjar police station. Both parents have been arrested, and police say they have recovered a mobile phone containing photographs and a video linked to the offence.
An offence has been registered under the BNS for rape and under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act for aggravated penetrative sexual assault. Anjar police inspector H A Jadeja said the family, originally from Uttar Pradesh, had been living near Anjar for about six years. The investigation is ongoing.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both Times Now and Times of India report the same core facts: a 14-year-old girl alleges her father raped her repeatedly and her mother filmed it, both parents have been arrested. Times Now provides a detailed timeline of each alleged assault, including the girl's two calls to police, while Times of India specifies the girl's age (14), the family's background (migrants from Uttar Pradesh), and the legal sections applied. Neither outlet frames the story with any slant toward or against the government, both present the police response as prompt on the second call and note that the first call went unanswered because the phone was switched off. The uniform coverage is straight reporting. The key open question, stated by both sources, is the outcome of the ongoing investigation by Anjar police.
