A school cab driver was arrested in Delhi for showing obscene video clips to a 10-year-old girl he used to drop home, police said on Tuesday.
"Cab driver Shiv Kumar, 26, has been showing the minor girl obscene video clips on his mobile phone for the past three months," said a police official.
The matter came to light when the girl on Monday refused to board the school cab, after which the school called her parents.
She told her parents, who live in west Delhi's Dwarka area, about the cab driver's action after which the driver was arrested from Som Vihar area on Monday.
He has been booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, police said.
