Teacher held for molesting first grader in capital
A school teacher was arrested in the capital yesterday afternoon for molesting one of his students in grade 1.
During primary interrogation, the English teacher, Enamul Haq, 23, admitted to Pallabi police that he molested the girl in the school for over a month and the last time he did that was last week.
The father told The Daily Star that his eight-year-old daughter had been acting strangely for the last couple of weeks. She had totally lost her appetite and remained sullen most of the time. After a lot of efforts, the parents came to know about the matter.
“I would have remained silent and send my daughter to another school. But then I thought about other students who could be his next victim and decided to bring him to book,” the father said.
The victim's father along with some 50 angry guardians of other students raised a hue and cry in the school in the morning demanding exemplary punishment for Enamul. He later filed a case.
When contacted, the school administration officer said the school authorities want stringent action against the accused if he is proven guilty.
