MBVV police`s Crime Branch, which is probing the death of a 10-month-old baby and the alleged molestation of her mother, is considering conducting a polygraph test of the arrested driver to ascertain the sequence of events. The complainant has alleged that a co-passenger threw her baby out of the car window and then three of her co-passengers and the driver molested her. Cops, however, have found some inconsistencies in her statement as well and are trying to verify how the toddler fell out of the vehicle.
The incident took place on December 10, minutes after the tribal woman, aged 19, and her toddler boarded the vehicle at Pelhar on Mumbai-Ahmedabad Highway to go to Manor. The woman, while talking to mid-day at a civic hospital in Nalasopara last week, had said, “One of the passengers snatched my baby and threw her out of the window while the others molested me.”
