Nursery kid raped inside a school bus in Bhopal, woman helper tried to cover up the crime
A three-and-half-year-old nursery school student was allegedly raped by the school bus driver in the presence of a woman helper who also tried to cover up the crime. Both the accused have been arrested.
The incident came to light when the student’s mother saw marks on her body and asked her what happened. Once the survivor told her mother about the incident, the family approached the school management, who apparently denied all allegations
After this, the police were informed and the driver was arrested under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act and a rape case was also lodged. The helper was also arrested as she tried to hide the crime.
Reacting to the incident, Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Narottam Mishra said both the accused have been arrested and said the school authorities also tried to cover up the crime so they would also be questioned and in case they are found guilty, action would be taken.
