A 10-year-old school girl has been allegedly sexually assaulted in the Tiruvallur district of Tamil Nadu. Police have registered a case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and an investigation is underway.
A video NDTV can't independently verify shows the minor girl walking alone being stalked by an unidentified man, who at one point is seen forcibly lifting the girl. The assault took place five days ago.
A senior officer told NDTV, "Special teams have been formed to nab the culprit. We would be able to share some breakthrough this evening."
