NAGPUR: A 75-year-old priest was arrested for allegedly sexually abusing two girls aged 5 and 7 on Friday. A group of agitated women from Hazaripahad stormed the Gittikhadan police station on Saturday and demanded stern action against the accused Babulal Dwivedi.
The matter came to fore after one of Dwivedi’s neighbours — the wife of a tailor whose shop is located across the temple — observed him sexually abusing one of the girls on February 8. …
The women initially approached a temple trustee over the issue but he — as the agitated women claim — tried to hush up the episode.
