The Trombay police have arrested a 30-year-old sweeper who sexually assaulted a three-year-old girl in nursery school. The incident took place on November 1, when the school sweeper spotted the child going to the washroom. He went in and molested her.

When she girl started crying, he threatened to kill her if she told anyone what had happened. Scared, the girl went home and broke down before her mother. Her parents immediately registered a complaint at the Trombay police station. The cops arrested the accused under Section 376 (rape) of the IPC along with the POCSO Act.
