IANS, 08 Aug, 2016 01:18 PM
    A man has been arrested for allegedly raping a 14-year-old girl in southeast Delhi's Givindpuri area, police said on Sunday.
     
    The matter came to light when the girl was taken for health check up to a doctor who diagnosed her to be six months pregnant, said a senior police officer.
     
    Later, the victim revealed that she was raped by a local fish-seller who had threatened to kill her if she told anyone about it.
     
    Doctors have refused termination of her pregnancy citing risk. The family has asked for help from the Prime Minister's Office and the National Commission for Women.
