A 38-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly showing obscene content on his mobile phone to a 10-year-old girl in Old Hubballi, Karnataka, officials said.

The incident came to light after the girl informed her parents about the man's behaviour. The parents subsequently approached the police and lodged a complaint at the Old Hubballi Police Station.

According to police, the accused, identified as Mazhid Nadaf, a daily-wage labourer from Old Hubballi, had allegedly befriended the girl over the past few weeks.
