Police have now confirmed that they have information that the 34-year-old bus driver Sanjay Naidu allegedly raped the 12-year-old girl along Princes Road on the 12th of this month.
Investigators have clarified that they have received confirmation that the alleged offence took place while the driver was on his last trip and committed the offence along one of the bus stops along Princes road.
Naidu has been remanded in custody until tomorrow.
Police say what is of great concern with this case is the allegation against the accused where he committed the act fully realizing the vulnerable state of the victim who had fallen asleep during the course of her journey.
The victim had boarded the bus from Nausori and had fallen asleep missing her stop.
It is alleged the bus driver did not attempt to wake the child up.
