Police has claimed that the mentally-challenged girl, who was found in a distressed state with injuries on her private parts in Alwar district, was seen walking alone in the CCTV footage and that she looked fine.

Alwar Superintendent of Police Tejaswani Gautam told reporters that the girl travelled around 25 km from her village alone and reached Alwar city in an auto-rickshaw and then walked towards the Tijara Fatak bridge "on her own".

‘We have been able to track the girl's movements and traced the auto-rickshaw in which she travelled with 8-10 other passengers.  A team of forensic experts have not found any proof that the girl was sexually assaulted in the auto-rickshaw,’ she said.

Gautam said the girl's medical report is yet to be out and teams have been investigating the case based on the FIR.   CCTV footage collected from various locations showed her walking in many areas of the city and on the bridge, but no camera found her in a distressed condition on the bridge, police said.

The minor girl was found lying on a bridge near Tijara Fatak on Tuesday night. She was bleeding and was admitted to the district hospital.

According to doctors, her rectum was displaced and she underwent a two-and-a-half-hour surgery.

The police earlier said it appeared to be a case of rape but maintained that anything conclusive could only be said after the report of the medical jurist was out.
