Thiruvananthapuram, May 31 : A youth was arrested in connection with the recent death of a 17-year-old girl in a school run by the Al-Aman Education and Charitable Trust located at the capital city suburbs, on Wednesday. After the girl belonging to the Muslim community was found hanging in a building of the Trust on May 13, a special police investigation team was formed to probe the death. The local BJP launched a protest, while the girl's family suspected foul play in her death. While the Trust officials ruled out any wrong-doing on their part, the BJP and its feeder organisations were adamant on a proper probe. The probe team, after receiving the autopsy report which stated that the girl was sexually abused around six months back, took into custody 20-year-old Hashim Khan. Police have registered charges under POCSO Act. /IANS
