A watchman of a building in the central suburbs has been nabbed after an 11-year-old girl accused him of molestation. He allegedly followed the girl into the lift and touched her inappropriately. He also tried to kiss her, threatening that she not reveal this to anybody. The girl did tell her mother though, and a complaint was lodged at the police station after which he was nabbed.
It is vital that buildings have good CCTV coverage in common areas like elevators and passages. The front gate should have surveillance too. The elevator must have an alarm button. One does understand that the target was a little girl, so there is a chance of confusion or freezing out of fear, which can happen to adults too. The upside is that the victim had the courage to confide in her mother, which led to the complaint being filed.
