Delhi’s New Ashok Nagar rape case: DNA, brain mapping test of accused

Police said investigators had preserved the minor girl’s clothes. “Apart from Rastogi’s samples, police will also send the victim’s clothes to the forensic department for analysis,” a police officer said.

Sources said that so far, sustained interrogation has revealed that he allegedly sexually abused 58 girls in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand, but no case has been registered. “Investigators also learnt that eight cases were registered against him, and apart from rape and molestation, he was earlier arrested in a theft and drug peddling case,” police sources added.

The alleged paedophile used a similar modus operandi almost every time, telling girls he knew their fathers before leading them to isolated spots. The accused was arrested after police received a complaint from the parents of a seven-year-old, whom he allegedly raped.

Meanwhile, the Delhi Police are providing counseling to all three victims, who came forward after he was arrested. “With the help of an NGO, we are providing counseling to them and requesting them to file an FIR against him, but they have not given any complaint as of now,” the officer added.
