A 99-year-old retired headmaster in the city has been arrested and charged with the sexual assault of a 10-year-old girl.
The Avadi all-women police took K Parasuraman into custody from his house in Senneerkuppam on Saturday after a complaint by the girl’s parents, who live in a house he had rented out next door, investigators said on Sunday.
“Parasuraman admitted to the crime,” the officer said. “We arrested him under Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act and a magistrate has remanded him in judicial custody.”
99-year-old had sexually abused minor girl several times before
The former headmaster at a government school on had rented out one of five houses he constructed in Senneerkuppam to the girl’s parents two years ago, an investigating officer said.
“The girl complained of nausea and stomachache on Friday,” he said. “Her parents thought she may have had something to eat at school or some snacks from shops nearby that made her ill.”
“But the girl told them that their landlord had taken her to the bathroom in his house where he sexually abused her,” the officer said. “Parasuraman disrobed in front of her, forced her to touch him inappropriately, and forced oral sex on her.” The girl’s father went to Parasuraman’s house and confronted the elderly man.
Neighbours alerted the Avadi all-woman police, who picked up Parasuraman for questioning. Parasuraman, who lived alone, has seven adult children. He had hired a servant to take care of the day-to-day chores, the officer said.
“Parasuraman had invited the girl to his house on several occasions,” the officer said. “He would use the pretext of asking her to read the newspaper to him to sexually abuse her.”
