A security guard has been indicted for violently throwing down and punching an 11-year-old girl accused of shoplifting at a Boston clothing store last summer.
Over the course of seven minutes, Khan, who officials said stands over 6 feet tall and weighs 225 pounds, grabbed the girl, pulled her back into the store and pushed her into a corner, obstructing the view of a closed-circuit television security camera. He allegedly grabbed the girl by the head and neck, threw her to the ground and punched her in the face while straddling her as she was on the ground. His Securitas co-workers and passersby urged him to stop, prosecutors said.
But even after he and the girl were separated by Boston Police, Khan re-engaged with her, prosecutors said.Khan had been reprimanded at least four times previously for using more force than permitted by Securitas and for violating protocol, the district attorney's office said. Officials said the company charged in this case is a subsidiary of Securitas AB, a Swedish-based multinational corporation with 370,000 employees around the world and 120,000 in the United States. It is one of the largest security firms in the nation.
Khan is scheduled to be arraigned Dec. 17 in Suffolk Superior Court, at which time prosecutors said additional information about the allegations will be provided.Janelle Griffith
