Bhopal | The Congress party on Saturday demanded a fresh set of CBI inquiry in the rape case of an 8-year-old in Madhya Pradesh’s Mandsaur.

Addressing a press conference Congress leader Jyotiraditya Scindia said, “It took a lot of time to lodge an FIR in the rape case of an 8-year-old girl in Mandsaur. Even today the investigation is not going in the right direction. We demand a CBI inquiry in the case.” He further added that Women in Madhya Pradesh don’t feel safe.

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Friday condemned the incident and said the accused should be hanged till death.

In a shocking incident, the eight-year-old girl was abducted from her school in Hafiz Colony here and allegedly gang-raped at her house in Mandsaur three days ago. The Madhya Pradesh Police has arrested two people in connection with the incident. Meanwhile, locals in the district have been protesting against the incident, demanding death penalty to the accused.
