A school teacher in Bihar’s Gaya has been arrested on charges of molesting a minor student, as reported by the police on Monday. The incident, which occurred on September 30, came to light after the girl’s uncle filed a complaint with the Paraiya police station in Gaya.
The accused has been identified as Subhash Manjhi, according to Gulshan Kumar, the Sub-Divisional Police Officer. The police investigation revealed that the girl, who resides in a village within the Paraiya police jurisdiction, was taken to the school rooftop by the teacher and subjected to molestation.
