Indian teen raped, shot and dumped. Read warning signs of child sexual abuse!

Indian teen raped, shot and dumped. Read warning signs of child sexual abuse!Indian teen raped, shot and dumped. Read warning signs of child sexual abuse!

The alleged gang-rape of a 14-year-old girl brings the focus back to child sexual abuse. What should parents consider warning signs? Read on to know

A 14-year-old Indian teenager was allegedly captured and repeatedly raped for over two weeks by a gang of men. She was then shot twice before being dumped near a well on the outskirts of Delhi.

The victim was reportedly abducted on November 22, 2015, while she was walking to a market in West Delhi. Upon her rescue, she spoke to NDTV, and narrated her ordeal.

She mentioned that she was kept in a ‘dark room’ where three men took turns to repeatedly rape her for a period of two-weeks. She added that after the abuse, they decided to let her go and put her in a car.

But when she took a few steps back, they shot at her twice, after which she fainted and fell into a well nearby. She mentioned that she gained consciousness and shook the bullet out of her chest and was then rescued by nearby villagers on December 6, 2015, who heard her screams.

She was later taken to the hospital says the media report.

This shocking incident is another edition to the sexual brutality meted to Indian girls. Remember, Jyoti Singh Pandey was also brutally raped on December 16, 2012, and died on December 29, succumbing to her injuries.

This news also highlights the necessity of informing our children about child sexual abuse so they are aware of their surroundings and are able to raise an alarm on time.

As parents, it may not be possible to helicopter your child all the time, and that is why it is all the more important to make them aware. Here are a few things you can do:

  • Notice warning signs of sexual abuse such as frequent injuries
  • Also notice if your child is always on the lookout for somebody or shows signs of fear
  • Keep a tab on any lacerations on the body especially on private parts
  • Notice if your child shows signs of aloofness or is scared of strangers
  • Notice if your child shows aggressiveness and does not want to attend school anymore

All these are signs of sexual abuse and you must keep a tab on them. Read this article to know what you should do if you notice your child being sexually abused.
