A 17-year-old was harassed by her neighbour while she was at her tuition classes in Vastral. The girl used to know the accused and the two used to chat via texts. However, recently, the victim's father had asked her to snap ties with the accused, following which the incident took place. A complaint under the POCSO Act was lodged at the Ramol Police Station on Tuesday.

The accused has been identified as 22-year-old Vanraj Sinh, who allegedly had pulled out a knife and threatened to kill the girl's father when he asked him to stop harassing his daughter.

Police said, about four years ago, the youth was residing next to the victim's house. During this period, he came in contact with the girl. But their bonhomie was cut short by the girl's parents. While the girl conceded to her parents' wish, Vanraj didn't stop trying to contact her.

On Tuesday, when it was Vanraj's birthday, he reached the victim's tuition centre and took her to the terrace forcefully where he sexually abused her. Fortunately, one of the workers at the tuition centre reached the terrace and Vanraj fled from the spot. The victim narrated the entire incident to her parents.

On Tuesday evening, the victim's father called Vanraj to his office in Vastral, where he arrived with two of his friends. During the conversation, Vanraj pulled out a knife from his pocket and threatened to kill him if he was stopped from contacting the girl. After the incident, all three fled from the spot.

KS Dave, the inspector of Ramol Police Station, said, "We have been able to arrest two of the accused including Vanraj; the search for the third one is on."
