Mumbai, November 12, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
Three people have been arrested in Mumbai’s Samta Nagar area for allegedly sexually exploiting a 14-year-old girl, recording objectionable videos of her and threatening to circulate them on social media. Police have also recovered more than 15 videos involving minor girls from the accused’s mobile phones, raising the possibility of additional victims.
The case concerns a girl from Hanuman Nagar, which falls under the jurisdiction of Samta Nagar Police Station. According to the preliminary investigation, the accused allegedly used threats to make the videos public to intimidate the victim and continue exploiting her.
Police have identified five people in connection with the case. Three have been arrested, while two others remain absconding and efforts are underway to trace them.
The recovery of more than 15 objectionable videos has widened the scope of the investigation. Police are examining the material to identify the minors featured in it and establish whether other girls were subjected to similar abuse. Investigators are also probing whether the accused were part of a wider exploitation network.
The matter came to the attention of the police following protests by Bajrang Dal activists in the area. Police subsequently registered a case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and arrested three accused.
Further investigation is underway to determine the full extent of the alleged offences, identify potential additional victims and apprehend the two absconding suspects.
