An alleged attack on a female prisoner at a state-run dormitory has prompted Thane cops to launch an investigation. Based on a video complaint that representatives from the District Woman and Child Welfare Department received, the police filed a formal report (FIR), according to a PTI report.
The complaint states that a junior caretaker allegedly forced another girl to massage her legs, and a senior caretaker allegedly sexually assaulted a 16-year-old hostel resident in Ulhasnagar. The girls said that if they didn`t agree with their demands, the carers threatened to send them to the Bhiwandi detention home, the PTI report further stated.
