The little girl, who studies in another institution, was reportedly lured into the compound of New Horizon School at Walbakgre area on Thursday by the accused who worked as a bus conductor in the school.
However, the school authorities claim that the accused had been dismissed from service a few months back on account of his alcoholism.
