Teacher held for violating girl
Police yesterday arrested a schoolteacher on charge of violating a class IX girl of his school in Tanore upazila Sunday night.
Abu Sufian, 30, a teacher of Ilamdohi Girls High School, was detained after the victim filed a case against him.
Police said Sufian proposed the girl to marry him and raped her in a wayside bush while she was returning home with him from private tuition at his house around 8:00pm Sunday.
Ismail Hossain, officer-in-charge of Tanore Police Station, told this correspondent that Sufian confessed to violating the girl. “After his arrest, the teacher wanted to marry the girl. But the girl is under-aged, and any rape case cannot be settled out of court”, he said.
The teacher was sent to jail custody after police produced him before a court.
