The Shantinagar police have written to the Bhiwandi-Nizampura municipal body, urging it to suspend Muzzamil Shaikh and take legal action against him for allegedly showing porn clip to a 13-year-old civic school student and groping her. Meanwhile, he was produced in a special POCSO court on Friday, which remanded him to police custody.
Shaikh, 40, was booked on Wednesday, after the 13-year-old victim narrated her ordeal to her parents. On August 26, she reached the school two hours late hence the school principal called her parents, seeking an explanation. The minor finally opened up after returning home.
