Pachorkar said the doctor reported the matter to the Azad Maidan police station.

The report said that a case of rape was filed against the brother and it was transferred to the Panvel City police station on Sunday, as the girl said the sexual assault had happened in Panvel.

Police said the girl also has a 25-year-old brother who lives separately and her mother has been living with a sickness. They added that the father is usually busy working or taking care of his wife.

The accused has been booked for rape under the POCSO Act.
