The special investigation team (SIT) probing the sexual assault and murder of a five-year-old girl child near Aluva on Friday will visit Bihar, if need be, to identify if the accused Asafak Aslam had been involved earlier in such crime, it is learnt.
Asafak, a native of Bihar, was arrested from Aluva on Saturday.
Sources said that there were no criminal cases against him in his home district in Bihar. It has to be seen whether there are cases against him in other districts in that State. The SIT’s primary focus now is on probing all local angles relating to the child’s murder.
