A 49-year-old man was taken into custody in Khammam after allegedly attempting to sexually assault a 12-year-old girl and pushing her from a residential building. The girl suffered serious injuries and is undergoing treatment, while police registered cases under the POCSO Act and attempt to murder.
The student, Lakshmi Bhavani Keerthy, was said to have been bitten 15 times by rats and she was administered anti-rabies vaccine each time she was bitten from March to November. This resulted in paralysis, family members alleged.
