Imphal, July 18 2010:
A minor girl staying in a private hostel has been molested by the owner of the same hostel.
Police have arrested the accused.
The accused identified as Thokchom Roshan (40) s/o Angou of Keishamthong Irom Pukhri Mapal ran a private hostel for girls at his residence.
Around 20 students reading from class I to X were staying in the hostel named Hipster Hostel (Girls Tutorial Home).
Most of the boarders were students of Little Flower School and Nirmalabas School.
According to information culled from the spot, Roshan took out a girl boarder on the pretext of administering medicine to cure her cold last night.

On the pretext of giving the medicine, Roshan not only touched different body parts of the young girl but also forced the minor to hold his private part.
Nothing was known about the incident till yesterday.
The incident came to light this morning when the girl narrated the humiliating experience to her hostel-mates.
Soon after, parents of the girls came to the hostel and took away the girls.
Even as the accused has been arrested by Imphal Police, a team of Imphal West commandos have been guarding his house which also served as hostel, apprehending attacks from the enraged neighbourhood.
Strangely, one Sub-Inspector leading the police team on guard at Roshan's house asked media persons who went there not to publish about the molest incident.
Meanwhile, taking strong exception to the incident, AMSU has banned the private hostel for good.
The student body has also asked all those running girls' hostels to keep lady wardens without fail.
