India police arrest tailor over serial child sex attacks


High levels of sexual violence against women and young girls in India continue despite tough laws against sex offenders and mass street protests.

New Delhi (AFP) - Indian police said Monday they have arrested a man accused of multiple sexual assaults on young girls in Delhi, revealing he had been arrested on a similar charge last year and released on bail.

Police arrested 38-year-old tailor Sunil Rastogi in Delhi on Saturday following complaints from alleged victims and study of CCTV footage, deputy police commissioner Omvir Singh Bishnoi told AFP.
