Tue Aug 05 03:54:37 UTC 2025: **Headline: Thane School Investigating Alleged Sexual Assault of 4-Year-Old Girl**
**Thane, Maharashtra – August 5, 2025** – Police in Thane are investigating allegations that a four-year-old girl was sexually assaulted within the premises of a well-known school. The parents filed a complaint stating that the incident occurred on July 30 between 11:15 AM and 3:00 PM, alleging a person in blue clothes assaulted their daughter.
Authorities have taken the matter seriously, examining CCTV footage from the school. “We are investigating the matter under the POCSO (Protection of Children from Sexual Offences) Act,” stated a senior police official. “Although the initial CCTV investigation did not reveal any suspicious movement, we are expanding the probe so that no link is left unturned.”
The school administration is reportedly cooperating with the police in the investigation. Statements are being taken from school staff, and information is being gathered from potential witnesses in the area.
This incident brings back memories of a similar event last August, where two minor girls were sexually assaulted in a school toilet in Badlapur, also in the Thane district. That incident resulted in widespread protests and outrage. The accused in that case was later killed in an alleged police shootout.
