Vadodara: He had molested a two-year-old girl and was caught red-handed by her parents earlier this month. Dinesh Solanki was booked for sexual harassment and under the POCSO Act by the Wadi police. And, now he will have to cool his heels in jail for a long time as cops have also invoked Prevention of Anti-Social Act (PASA) against him.
In a first, the city police have begun taking strong action against the persons accused in sexual harassment offences.
This year, six men accused in various cases of sexual harassment were booked under PASA. “We have begun invoking PASA against those committing sexual offences in the city. The idea is to send a strong message to such offenders that they will face strict action for their criminal acts. Sexually harassing a woman is a grave offence,” said Shamsher Singh, city police commissioner.
