India: Girl, 4, 'Raped On School Bus'

Police are questioning a cleaner on suspicion of raping a four-year-old girl on a school bus in India.

The 26-year-old man was arrested after the girl claimed he asked her to come to the back seat of the bus to show her some magic tricks before assaulting her.

According to the police complaint filed by the girl's parents, she and her friend were the first to board the bus after school in the district of Thane in north Mumbai while the man was still cleaning it.

A series of rapes have prompted large-scale protests in India

Although the girl screamed and her friend went to help her, the man allegedly threatened to kill them both if they told anyone, according to police.

Inspector SK Mohite said: "The cleaner called her to the back seat on the pretext of showing her some tricks.

"He then caught the girl and raped her."

He added: "There was no woman attendant on the bus at that time."

Mr Mohite said the girl has undergone a medical examination and doctors confirmed she had been sexually assaulted.

"Medical details and investigations into the cleaner's past are being gathered," he added.

Local reports say this is the second such incident reported this year.

In February the cleaner of a school bus was arrested by police in Malad for allegedly molesting a three-year-old girl.

News of the alleged assault comes days after four men were sentenced to death over the gang-rape of a student in Delhi in December.

The victim died from the brutal assault, which led to weeks of protests over the treatment of women and girls in India.

Mumbai has also been recently rocked by the gang rape of a photographer in August while she was on assignment in the city with a male colleague.

Five suspects have been arrested over the allegations and are expected to be charged this week.
