An unidentified man tried to sexually assault a Class IV girl student in the toilet of a private school in Panipat, a senior police official said on Thursday. A case has been registered under various sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offenses (POCSO) Act against the accused, after the girl’s father reported the matter to the police on Wednesday. “The girl was found crying in the school by her teachers. She insisted on meeting her parents. Her parents were immediately called and she left with them. At home, she narrated her ordeal,” Station House Officer (SHO) Sub Inspector (SI) Kavita of the Women Police Station in Panipat said.
