Amid the series of rape cases registered, particularly among the minors, another rape case has been registered.
A scientist was arrested in Agra, Uttar Pradesh for sexually abusing two minor girls, the police said on Wednesday.
Taj Ganj police Station House Officer (SHO) Shailendra Kumar said a fellow scientist had filed a written complaint against the accused Vishnu Dutt Sharma, 62, saying that he lured a minor girl to his house and tried to sexually abuse her.
The victim told her mother about what had happened to her. The police were immediately contacted, the complaint said.
Another neighbor confirmed that his daughter too had been a victim.

Several others told the police that the scientist used to call girls luring them with chocolates.
Sharma, who works for Jalma Institute, is slated to retire in September.
Recently a man tried to sexually assault a teenager who resisted and ended up being pushed off the terrace.
Ever since the Unnao rape case of Uttar Pradesh and the Kathua rape case of Jammu Kashmir, the nation has been demanding justice be delivered to the victims resulting in the sanction of the death penalty of rapists of minors.
