Karnataka Man Arrested for Incest, Impregnating Minor Sister
A young man in India has been arrested because police say he forced his younger sister to have a baby with him.
The sister was very young and didn't even know she was pregnant until she gave birth at a hospital.
She told the doctors that her brother made her do it by promising to marry her and take care of her.
She also said he threatened to hurt himself if she told anyone.
The police have arrested the brother, and he is facing serious charges for harming his sister and breaking laws that protect children.
This is a very sad situation involving family betrayal and abuse.
A 21-year-old man was arrested in Karnataka for allegedly forcing his minor sister into a physical relationship and impregnating her.
The incident came to light on October 30 when the victim delivered a baby at a government hospital, unaware she was pregnant.
The minor alleged her brother coerced her through promises of marriage, care, blackmail, and threats of self-harm.
The victim's father had previously married for a second time.
The accused has been arrested and sent to judicial custody under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the POCSO Act.
