The Delhi High Court on Monday cancelled the bail granted to a 57-year-old private school caretaker accused of sexual assault of a three-year-old girl on the school premises in west Delhi’s Janakpuri area.

The court directed the caretaker to surrender before the jurisdictional Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) court on July 1 at 2 pm.

Justice Vinod Kumar passed the order while allowing petitions filed by the Delhi Police and the complainant challenging the trial court’s May 7 decision to grant bail to the accused, Lalit Kumar, in a case registered under the POCSO Act.
