In a shocking incident, a 52-year-old HIV patient has been arrested for allegedly having “oral sex” with the minor son of his tenant in east Delhi’s Mandawali area, police said on Saturday.
The incident happened on Friday when the accused took the five-year-old boy to the terrace of his house on the pretext of playing with him. He then allegedly had “oral sex” with the child, said a senior police officer.
It is suspected that the man carried out the act three to four times with the minor over the last week, the officer said.
