Imran, one of the individuals accused in the recent murder case of a 30-year-old model in Delhi, was previously booked under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act in 2018. This detail emerged during the ongoing police investigation into the model's murder, where Imran is one of three individuals implicated.

The discovery of Imran's prior legal history highlights additional background in the ongoing murder investigation. The earlier case, registered in 2018, involved allegations of sexually harassing a minor.

Key details regarding the 2018 POCSO case include:

  • Registration: The case was filed at the Inderpuri police station in Delhi.
  • Allegations: Imran was accused of stalking the minor, making lewd comments, and touching her inappropriately.
  • Legal Action: A chargesheet was subsequently filed by the police in connection with the allegations.
  • Case Outcome: The Delhi High Court quashed the case in 2022. This decision followed an affidavit submitted by the victim and her father, who stated they had reached a settlement. The High Court's order noted that the settlement was "at the behest of the prosecutrix and her father."

Imran is currently accused alongside Mohammad Moin Khan and an individual identified as "M" in the murder of the model. The victim's body was discovered in a sack near the Bhalswa landfill in Delhi following her reported disappearance. Delhi Police initiated a murder investigation after the discovery, leading to the apprehension of the accused individuals. The revelation of Imran's past booking under the POCSO Act came to light during the standard background checks conducted by the police as part of the murder inquiry.

The Delhi Police investigation into the model's murder is ongoing, with authorities gathering evidence and conducting further interrogations. Legal proceedings for the accused in the murder case are expected to continue, following police procedures and judicial processes.
