Mother of one of the two accused in the Mandsaur rape case demanded a Central Bureau Investigation (CBI) inquiry in the matter.

She believes that his son is innocent.

"I trust he is innocent. A CBI inquiry should be conducted in the case. If he is found guilty he should be severely punished," the mother told ANI.

Meanwhile, the father of the eight-year-old victim has demanded death sentence for the accused.

Speaking to ANI, the father on Saturday said that he wants nothing, except justice for his daughter.

On Saturday, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) was constituted to investigate the matter, the police said.
