The officer said Goparam took the girl to Pali on his motorcycle on the pretext of some work on Saturday. "He stopped the bike near Baniyawas village and attacked her with a stone. He damaged her face and other body parts severely. It seems he thought that the girl had died and fled from the spot," Lal said.
