After seeing a movie on ‘good touch-bad touch’ at her school in Shahdara’s Vivek Vihar, a Class IV student realised that she was being molested.
The 9-year-old girl then reported the matter to her teacher on Thursday, the police said on Friday.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Shahdara) Meghna Yadav said the 38-year-old accused, a tenant to the victim’s family, has been arrested.
A senior officer said all the students were shown the film recently after which the minor realised that she was being inappropriately touched.
“Her teacher informed her family following which the latter approached the police,” the officer said.
A case under Section 354 of the Indian Penal Code and relevant sections of Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act has been registered, they said.
