Lucknow: A private school teacher in Lucknow has been booked for harassing his former girl student and attacking her mother.
The accused, identified as Sarwar Ansari (35), is employed at a school located in Uttar Pradesh’s Sharda Nagar.
The minor girl, who passed out of school this year, accused him of stalking, using foul language, passing lewd remarks, and threatening to kidnap her. The family of the girl had confronted him a number of times in the past on the issue, but Ansari did not mend his ways.
On Tuesday, he made a call to the girl and threatened her with dire consequences if she did not accept his proposal. After the girl told her family members about the same, her mother went to the school demanding an explanation.
“He attacked me causing me to suffer injuries in my throat,” she alleged.
“My daughter is a minor while the accused is married, and he had a son from his marriage also. He is mad after my daughter. He used to make obscene gestures at my daughter while standing at the window of a classroom in the school," she said.
A case was lodged in this connection. The accused has been detained and is being interrogated, Aashiana SHO Anil Kumar Pandey said.
