One held in Raj Bhavan case

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The police on Sunday arrested a person, who allegedly sexually harassed a twelve-year-girl living in the Raj Bhavan quarters. Police identified the accused as Benser, native of Kannanthura.


The girl, who was residing with her mother at the Raj Bhavan quarters, was subjected to sexual harassment by her stepfather for the past few years. But it came to light only early this month when the teachers developed doubts about the behaviour of the girl, following which they informed the police with the help of Childline.
