A 25-year-old man was arrested by the Andheri police for allegedly stalking and molesting a minor repeatedly. According to the police, the accused, Brijeshkumar Yadav had been stalking the survivor for the past few weeks, and finally attacked and threatened her last week.

Yadav, an Andheri East resident, would allegedly lie in wait for her to pass by during her 15-minute walk to school, and follow and taunt her with lewd comments. According to the statements registered with the police, last week, he touched her hand and then pushed her and threatened to hurt her if she told anyone about the incident. Too scared to leave the house and go to school, the Std V student stayed home with a fever for two days.
