The Hebbagodi police have arrested a couple for allegedly torturing a 5-year-old girl for intruding into their privacy. The accused Manjunath, working in a private firm, had married Manjula, after she separated from her husband.
Manjula, 35, had two children. One was a boy, who was tortured and harassed in the same way by the couple but rescued by residents and neighbours three months ago, said the police.
The accused Manjunath used to come home drunk and beat up the child for disturbing his privacy.
