"We have booked an lodged a case against the resort management under Section 304-A (negligence) of the Indian Penal Code for their negligent manner in maintaining the swimming pool by not providing any pool attendant or life guard there," Dalvi told reporters here.
The boy had wandered into the pool, without the knowledge of his parents, he said.
