Coimbatore: A youth pursuing a diploma course allegedly impregnated his younger sister studying ninth standard in a corporation school and is reportedly absconding, police said here Monday.
The teenaged girl was sexually abused for over a year, resulting in pregnancy, the police said. The youth in his early 20s had assaulted the girl when their parents were away, they said.
