A minor boy was molested by a staffer of Posh Club in the Bandra area of the city suburb.

According to a complaint made at Bandra police station, a member of the club has complained that a staffer sexually molested his minor son.

Following this, the staffer has been arrested under POCSO and is currently in the custody of the Bandra police station.

The club secretary, Sunil Motwani, has denied the incident.

A member of the club's disciplinary committee said that several weeks ago, the child had ordered food at the club.

The food was late in coming, and he went to the kitchen, where the accused, who is a kitchen cashier, told him to step out.

The accused is an employee of the catering contractor. However, the child reportedly refused, at which point the cashier jostled him out.

It is alleged that he poked him with his finger during the jostling. When the parent complained to the club management, they called for the CCTV footage but did not find any evidence of sexual assault, except for him evicting the boy.

As a matter of abandoned precaution, the club wrote to Bandra police detailing the incident.

However, the child's father was told by the victim that he was inappropriately touched.

Accordingly, he filed a police complaint. Meanwhile, the club has alleged that the parent badly assaulted the accused outside the club premises.

Bandra Police, which has arrested the accused, is further investigating the matter.
