A 30-year-old teacher has been arrested in Maharashtra's Beed city for allegedly raping an 11-year-old girl who attended his tuition, police said, reported the PTI.
The accused (name not disclosed to protect the victim's identity) taught to children at his home in the district, said inspector A K Mudliyar of Pethbeed police station.
He allegedly raped the girl many times after other students left and also subjected her to unnatural sex, the official told PTI.

"We have registered an FIR under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) for rape, unnatural sex, and also under relevant sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO). Further investigation is underway," inspector Mudliyar said, the news agency reported on Friday.
