IANS, 15 Mar, 2018 01:24 PM
    A seven-and-half year old girl was allegedly molested by her teacher at a religious school at Nagrota in the outskirts of Jammu, a police official said today.
     
    The girl's mother lodged a complaint on Monday alleging that her daughter was raped by her teacher at a dargah.
     
    According to the police, the mother alleged that after returning from school, her daughter complained of pain in her private parts. 
     
    Police arrested the accused, Shahnawaz, on Wednesday and a case has been registered against him. 
     
    A medical examination, however, did not confirm rape.
     
    Further investigation into the case was going on, the official said.
