A class 8 student was allegedly raped by a middle-aged man while she was returning from school after Independence Day celebrations at the Children's Traffic Park, located in the heart of Chandigarh.
The Chandigarh Police have registered a case of rape after the girl lodged a complaint.
The assaulter dragged the Class 8 student of the Government Senior Secondary School, Sector 23, near a 'nallah' passing through the traffic park, and raped her at knifepoint.
According to Tribune, Chandigarh SSP Eish Singhal rushed to the spot from the Independence Day function he was attending at Sector 17.
The incident happened despite Chandigarh being on high alert on Independence Day. Government officers, some of them having security, live in the vicinity of the main gate of the traffic park.
The incident has happened in Chandigarh, just days after the attempted abduction and stalking of Varnika Kundu by Vikas Barala, the son of Haryana BJP President Subhash Barala, and his friend Ashish Kumar.
