A four-year-old girl was sexually assaulted at a private school in Dasarahalli, north Bengaluru, on Tuesday. Police have detained five security guards at the school for questioning.
The girl felt unease and started vomiting after coming home. The parents got worried and took her to the MS Ramaiah Memorial Hospital where doctors confirmed that she had been sexually assaulted. The girl also told her parents that a man in her school had misbehaved with her by touching her private parts. The parents then went to the Bagalagunte police and filed a complaint. Police registered a case under the Pocso Act.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (North) Chetan Singh Rathore said five security guards at the school had been detained for questioning. Police are also reviewing the footage of CCTV cameras installed at the school, he added.
