Kanpur Police have informed that the accused Faiz has been charged with relevant sections under POCSO charges. He has been arrested by the police on Sunday and has been sent to jail under police remand.
When the police team finally located Faiz and arrived to arrest him, the female members of his family reportedly tried to create a ruckus, with the intention to prevent his arrest. The women and some neighbours even clashed with the police, due to which additional forces were called to control the situation.
