MP Cops Sacked Over Rape Accused Arrest Delay
In Madhya Pradesh, India, the Chief Minister fired two police officers because they couldn't catch a man who hurt a little girl.
The man, named Salman, is 23 years old and he tricked the 6-year-old girl to go with him.
He hurt her badly and left her in the forest.
The girl is now in the hospital and getting better.
People in the area are very angry and have been protesting for three days.
The police have increased the reward for catching the bad man to 30,000 rupees and have sent many police officers to look for him.
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav sacked the Raisen Superintendent of Police and Misrod police station in-charge over failure to arrest the rape accused.
The 23-year-old accused, Salman, remains at large four days after allegedly raping a 6-year-old girl in Raisen.
The victim was found in a critical condition and is currently admitted to AIIMS Bhopal, where her condition is improving.
Public protests and road blockades have erupted in the region, with villagers staging a continuous sit-in despite the cold.
Authorities have increased the reward for information leading to the accused's arrest to Rs 30,000 and deployed 20 police teams with around 300 personnel.
