In Gwalior, a government school instructor was detained for sexually harassing a minor girl student. According to the victims, the teacher threatened to murder them and have them fail their exams if they didn’t participate.
When a girl told her mother about the incident, it came to light. The other victims, who were between the ages of six and eight, also admitted that a teacher by the name of Gwalior (58) used to drag them into a classroom and demand that they strip off their clothes.
The teacher also took pictures of them in their underwear and enjoyed using them.
When the victims’ parents learned about the incident, they went to the Utila police station and complained about the teacher.
They told the station in-charge, Awadhesh Singh Kushwaha, about the incidences, and he filed an FIR against the defendants under the POCSO Act’s protection of children from sexual offences and the rape statute.
The teacher was detained by the authorities for sexually molesting the girls as soon as they arrived at his home. Further investigation is underway.
