The police revealed that the accused had lured the girl into an abandoned house and started undressing her. Just as he attempted to assault her, the monkeys appeared, scaring him away and leaving the girl behind.
CCTV footage from the village shows the suspect leading the girl away, and authorities are working to identify him through this evidence. The man, from a neighboring village, had enticed the girl after seeing her playing outside her home.
The girl’s father told that the man threatened to kill the family if she resisted. He added, “If it weren’t for the monkeys, my daughter might not have survived.”
After the monkeys scared off the attacker, the girl ran home and informed her parents, who then filed a police report.
