A 16-year-old girl was reportedly raped by the employer of her father at Krishnapur village in Cumilla’s Lakhsham upazila on Thursday night.

Police arrested Tajul Islam Majumdar, 42, son of late Abu Taher Majumdar of the village, soon after the victim's father filed a case against him on Friday.

The girl's father works as a watchman at Tajul's fish enclosure in the village and used to stay in a tin-shed house near it with his family, said Nazrul Islam, officer-in-charge of Laksham Police Station, UNB reports.

On Thursday night, Tajul took out the girl from their house at around 10:30pm while her father was out of home and her mother was sleeping inside. Later, Tajul violated the girl there, said the OC quoting the case statement.
