NEW DELHI: The Delhi Police have arrested one person in the incident in which a Class 5 student was gang-raped by a peon and three others. The arrested person is school peon Ajay Kumar, a native of Jaunpur in Uttar Pradesh. The child was gang-raped by Ajay Kumar and his friends. The police are conducting a search to find the other accused.

The incident took place on March 14. The accused took the child from the school to an unknown place, sedated her with some substances and raped her along with his associates. The student was absent on the next day of the annual examination. The class teacher contacted her mother who informed about the sexual assault with her by the school attendant.

Although the teacher told the child's family to lodge a complaint with the police, the family refused due to fear. Following this, the school authorities informed the police. Police have registered a case against the accused under the POCSO Act. The girl has been admitted to Lal Bahadur Shastri Hospital.
