Adil Khatri, advocate for Rehan Qureshi, accused of raping and molesting 16 children, has told Thane's special POSCO court that Qureshi's human rights have been violated. Qureshi was arrested from Mira Road by Navi Mumbai Police last month. Khatri has claimed that he has not been allowed to meet his client.

He said, "There is landmark Supreme Court case involving DK Basu vs state of WB 1997, where the rights guaranteed under the Indian Constitution were violated. It was said that guidelines provided by various Supreme Court judgements on Rights of Accused Person were not followed. Qureshi's family is not allowed to meet him and the police are misguiding them. Also when Qureshi was brought to court, he told his brother that the police had taken his signature on some papers by misleading him."
The accused got Judicial Custody in the case registered at Rabale police station.
