A special POCSO court on Wednesday convicted a 50-year-old man for sexually assaulting a minor girl in a taxi in 2018. The case was brought to the attention of police by the minor's mother.

In her complaint, the mother said she on her way to visit her ailing father-in-law in Navi Mumbai's Panvel on March 25, 2018. Along with her sister-in-law and two daughters, the complainant boarded a local train from CSMT but it halted at Nerul owing to repair work, stated a report in India Today.
