A four-year-old girl was allegedly molested in the washroom of a prominent school in west Delhi's Vikaspuri area, police said today.
After the child got back home from school on September 16, she told her parents that a mustachioed man allegedly took her inside the washroom of the institute around afternoon and molested her, said a police officer.
Her parents then lodged a complaint in Vikaspuri police station and a case under the relevant sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO) has been registered, he said.
