New Delhi: A 50-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting a four-year-old girl in Begumpur area of Rohini, police said today.

The incident happened last night but was reported to the police this afternoon and the accused, named Firen, was arrested, said a senior police officer.

The accused, who is a neighbour of the victim, had come to her house around 9 PM.

The girl didn't reveal about the incident to her mother but later she broke down and narrated her ordeal.

The medical examination of the child was conducted and her condition is stated to be stable.

Firen is married and lives in the same colony.
