Gurgaon: A 15-year-old boy was Tuesday held for raping his neighbour's five-year-old daughter, police said.


The families of both the boy and the girl hail from Panna district of Madhya Pradesh. The two families live in Ashok Vihar Phase-3.

The incident took place Tuesday noon. People on the street heard the girl crying and found the accused inside the room.

The girl's mother informed police and a case of rape and charges under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act were registered.

The girl was taken for treatment to a hospital here, while the accused was produced before a magisterial court which sent him to a juvenile home, police said.
