Police have arrested a man for allegedly kidnapping a 15-year-old Andheri girl and forcing her into prostitution. They are looking for his accompliace and a couple.
DN Nagar police said Mohammad Bashir Sheikh (24) kidnapped the girl from near her residence in Juhu Galli on March 21. He allegedly took her in a rickshaw to Marve Road in Malvani.
The girl did not suspect anything as Sheikh was known to her. Her father, a labourer, approached police the next day and lodged a missing complaint.
Sheikh took the girl to the residence of Imran Warsi and his wife Alvira and sold her to them. Imran allegedly later raped her. "We are verifying the sequence and are relying on the statement of the arrested accused," said senior inspector Vijay Bhoite.
The next day, the girl was abandoned near the residence of her relative in Malvani.
Monday, she narrated the ordeal to her parents, who immediately approached police.
Bhoite said, "We have registered a case of kidnapping under IPC sections 363 and 366A and under section 5 of Prevention of Immoral Trafficking Act. Imran Warsi and his wife are on the run."
"We are on the lookout for a man who was with Sheikh when he picked up the girl. Sheikh was produced in court Tuesday and remanded in police custody," another officer said.
