Three women, including mother of the victim and a doctor, have also been booked by police on charges of getting the victim's abortion done in a private hospital located at Sunariya Chowk here, police said.
The shocking case came to light when a police team carried out a raid at the nursing home yesterday and caught Dr Seema along with the victim's mother Purna and another woman named Omi while she was conducting the abortion process of the girl.
