Kolkata, Jul 5 (IBNS): Adding to the series of incidents of child abuse across the country, a two-year-old boy was allegedly sexually assaulted inside the premises of a playschool in West Bengal's Diamond Harbour area near Kolkata, reports said.

The child's father filed a complaint in this regard at Thakurpukur police station on Wednesday, two days after the incident, saying the private parts of the boy was bleeding after he returned home from school on June 2.

An FIR has been registered against unknown people under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act (POCSO) Act 2012.

According to media reports, a primary medical report said it “seemed” a case of sexual assault.

On June 2, when the mother of the child went to pick him up from school, she found the child crying. After she took the child to the home, she found his private parts were bleeding, the complaint said.

“We rushed him to a doctor, who suspected that an object was inserted in his rectum due to which it was in a swollen condition,” the father mentioned in the police report.

“We requested the principal and authorities to show us CCTV footage. But they informed us that their CCTV cameras weren’t working properly since June 26. We suspect the school authorities might have intentionally deleted the footage,” the complaint said.
