Maharashtra Home Minister R R Patil Tuesday ruled out the possibility of the rape of three minor sisters, whose bodies were found in a well in their village in Bhandara district.
The three bodies were found floating in this well on February 16, at a villager's farm near National Highway 6 in Bhandara
The three girls - aged five, nine and 11 - went missing Feb 14 from Lakhani village of Bhandara district, 65 km from Nagpur. Their mother lodged a complaint with the local police station after they did not return from school.
Patil said that the government is ready to transfer the case to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for further probe if the victim's family asks for it.
