The Hill Line police in Ulhasnagar have arrested a 28-year-old man and booked him in the POCSO case based on a complaint filed by the parents of a 12-year-old girl, who claimed that the accused had touched their daughter inappropriately.

According to the police, the incident took place on April 6, following which the parents of the girl approached the Hill Line police. Police said that based on their complaint, an FIR was registered, and the accused was arrested from Ulhasnagar the next day on April 7, and within 24 hours, a charge sheet was also filed. 


Following his arrest, the accused was taken to the court, which granted him police custody for one day. “The accused had confessed to the crime. The decision to file the charge sheet within 24 hours is so that the court prosecutes him swiftly,” a police officer said.
