The Special Investigation Team (SIT) formed to investigate the sexual assault of two minor girls at a Badlapur-based school has sought permission from court to carry out the identification parade of the accused, Akshay Shinde, who was arrested on August 21.

Both the survivors will be called to identify the accused so police can build a watertight case against him. “We have kept the timing a secret for security reasons and will carry out the parade in the next day or two,” said a police officer.
