Hyderabad: The department of Women Development & Child Welfare in Telangana has rescued 3-year-old girl, whose father was seen thrashing her even as his smiling wife watched the hapless girl in a video that went viral.
The heartbreaking incident was reported from Medak town. The police booked a suo motu case against the man, who is stated to be absconding.
“The team had rescued the child on Monday and shifted to a safe space. The child will be produced before the Child Welfare Committee for further orders. We’ll ensure the child’s safety and appropriate action is taken against the father,” the department said in a tweet.
The hideous incident came to light after neighbours secretly filmed the man, who was identified as Madisetty Nagaraju (32), flogging his frail-looking daughter, while his wife Sunayana watched on smiling.
