Caretaker harasses 11 months old baby

In a horrible incident, a caretaker who was supposed look after kids, was found harassing a 11 months old baby. The incident took place in Pune and the caretaker is identified as 42 year old Laxman Patole.

Going to the details, the child's parents work with BPO company in Pune and have a 11 months old baby.  They hired caretaker named Laxman Patole with the help of local Nursing Bureau and on May 7th, the lady was found assaulting the child in CCTV footage. As the child started crying, the caretakers increased the dose of harassing too. She was slapping the crying child and flinging him hard onto a beanbag. And the most shocking thing is, the maid was well aware of the camera inside the apartment and so she switched off the lights before the attack.

The toddler's parents who watched the CCTV footage of harassing the baby, filed a complaint against the caretaker at Dattwadi Police station. Caretaker Laxman was arrested under under Section 23 (punishment for cruelty to child) of the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection) Act, and sections 323 (punishment for voluntarily causing hurt) and 504 (intentional insult) of the Indian Penal Code.

However, she was released on bail the very next day which did upset the baby's parents and the agency reported that the caretaker had a excellent track record before. The child's parents are now looking after the next legal proceedings.
