He works at a private security company and is on night shifts, while the rest of the family leaves in the morning for their respective work and school, trusting him with the baby.
For representational purpose only

“He came back after night duty while the girl’s father left home for his morning duty. Her mother and siblings also left and finding the child alone, the man sexually assaulted her,” said a senior police officer.
The 18-month-old baby has an elder sibling as well. Once the mother came back home, she found the child crying inconsolably and bleeding from the private parts. She rushed with the baby immediately to a nearby hospital where she was informed that the baby was sexually assaulted.
This incident leaves thousands of worried parents with only one question, if the kids are not even safe in their own houses, then where?
