Mira Bhayander: A 27-year-old labourer of Mira Bhayander Municipal Corporation (MBMC) has been booked for alleged sexual harassment, along with sections of the Pocso Act. The 17-year-old complainant has alleged the incident happened twice on Dec 27 last year in MBMC premises and also on Jan 5 outside the MBMC, after which cops registered an offence of Jan 7. “The moment we came to know about the charges, we suspended the employee on Jan 14,” said a senior MBMC official. The minor was employed by a contractor who was appointed by the MBMC for election work. MBMC said the contractor has also been issued a show cause notice and cops said the accused got an anticipatory bail and that they are investigating further.
