Shocking revelations have come to light during the investigation in the case of exploitation of a minor girl by well-known doctor couple Waliul Islam and Dr. Sangeeta Dutta in Guwahati, Assam.
Giving information to the media on Sunday, Guwahati Police Commissioner Digant Barah said, ‘The doctor couple had kept the minor girl hostage on the fourth floor of their house. Injuries have been found on the private parts and many parts of the body of the 3-year-old girl. During the medical examination, it was also found that the private part of the girl was burnt with a cigarette.

In this case, the doctor couple along with the maid Lakshmi Nath has been arrested by the police. All the three accused were produced in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate in Guwahati. After this, the court sent the couple to police custody for five days and the maid to judicial custody for seven days. The police commissioner said that a case has been registered against the accused couple under the POCSO Act (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences).
The doctor couple lied
The officer said that there were a total of three children in the couple’s house. They also lied that they are the biological parents of the twins. Dingat Barah said that the police are now trying to find out who these children belong to and how they came to the couple’s house.

The official said that the motive behind torturing the children is yet to be ascertained. Barah said, ‘We are continuing our investigation to find out the truth’
Let us tell you that the Assam Police on Friday arrested renowned surgeon Dr. Waliul Islam and his maid Lakshmi Nath from Roma Enclave in Guwahati. He was arrested for allegedly torturing a 3-year-old girl for several months. When the police raided the doctor couple’s house on the complaint of a neighbor, the team was taken aback.
They were also shocked to see the condition of the children. At that time the husband and wife were not at home. After interrogating Dr. Islam and the maid, the police arrested both of them on Saturday morning and started searching for Dr. Dutta. Psychiatrist Sangeeta Dutta was later arrested from a house in Umsing in Ri-Bhoi district of Meghalaya, where she was hiding.
