JAIPUR: Two teenage sisters were allegedly raped by two co-workers of their father at a brick kiln in Rajasthan’s Alwar district, police said on Monday.

Both girls are pregnant, they said.

The girls’ father on Friday lodged a complaint at NEB police station. In the complaint, he alleged that his daughters, aged 15 and 13, were raped by Sappi and Subhan.

The matter came to light when the elder girl complained of abdominal pain and other health problems. Her parents took her to a doctor, who informed them that she was seven-and-a-half months’ pregnant, the police said.

“When her parents questioned her, the girl told them that Sappi and Subhan had raped her. She disclosed that they had raped her younger sister as well,” the police added.

The victim alleged that the accused had threatened to kill them if they told anyone about the incident.

Alwar SP Anand Sharma said an FIR was registered at NEB police station on Friday and the girls’ medical examination conducted. The medical test confirmed that both girls are pregnant.

The younger victim is two-and-a-half months’ pregnant, the police said.

NEB SHO Anil Jain said the matter is being investigated. No arrests have been made yet.
