DUBAI // A cook who trapped a seven-year-old girl in a toilet of the restaurant where he worked and molested her was jailed for a year.

Indian M K, 25, locked the British girl in the toilet with him on March 7, when she was having lunch with her family.

The girl said in her testimony that she was with her parents and sisters at the Internet City restaurant when she asked the defendant for napkins.
