A 42-year-old man from Dombivli, Thane, has been booked by the police after allegations of repeatedly abusing his six-year-old daughter. The incidents reportedly took place multiple times since June, when the child was home alone.
The crime came to light after the child’s mother filed a complaint with the authorities. The man has been charged under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. The police are continuing their investigation into the matter.
