A teacher in Raichur, Karnataka, was physically assaulted for sending inappropriate messages to a female colleague.
The accused, Mehboob Ali, an assistant head teacher at Adarsha Government School, sent explicit messages to a female guest teacher and persisted in harassing her despite her attempts to ignore him.
The female teacher then shared her ordeal with the family. The relatives and family members of the victim arrived at the school on Monday and questioned Mehboob Ali about his advances. They thrashed him and tore his clothes.
Mehboob Ali gave an apology in writing to the teacher and confessed to the crime. He was also made to touch the feet of the victim. The accused was warned of serious consequences if he attempted similar advances in future.
Mehboob Ali repeatedly requested the family and the victim to spare him as he had a family, the victim then decided not to lodge a police complaint against him and initiate legal action.
Meanwhile, the videos of the accused teacher apologising and touching the feet of the victim went viral on social media on Tuesday.
The Raichur police said that if the victim complained they would initiate legal proceedings against the accused teacher.
Based on the complaint submitted by the female teacher to the higher authorities of the department, District Education Department’s Deputy Director K.D. Badiger has issued an order suspending Mehboob Ali pending investigation.
