The accused, Suresh (54) of Manavala Nagar in Tiruvallur, was involved in the laying of high-tension cables between Sunguvarchatram and Alamathy and had been staying temporarily in Vellavedu.

The incident happened on Tuesday afternoon when Suresh, who was drunk, saw a 14-year-old girl playing near his house and tried to make sexual advances by flashing currency.

Since the girl complained about this to her parents, a complaint was lodged with the Vellavedu police station. A case was registered and Suresh was arrested after an investigation and remanded.
