The Nallasopara police have arrested pastor John Alexander, accused of raping a 10-year-old girl at his child care center in Nallasopara in India. ‘‘He was arrested after he surrendered before us,’’ said Senior Police Inspector Bajirao Bhosale of Nallasopara police station.
Alexander, who was originally booked for rape and outraging the modesty of a woman, was also booked for cruelty to a child at the time of his arrest. Officials from the Women and Child Welfare department who visited the child center after the rape allegations found the shelter did not have all the permissions required, Bhosale said.
A week ago, a 10-year old girl from the Wings of Refuge child care center had complained she was raped by Alexander a month ago. When the victim’s elder sister found out, she told Anandi Joseph, known as the mother of the center, who told them not to report it to anyone. They then told teacher Kavita Bansode, who approached the police. Joseph was arrested on Friday and another employee Sunder Rajan was arrested after a 12-year old girl complained to the police that he had molested her.
