Two madrasa teachers have been arrested in Kerala on the complaint of sexually abusing madrasa students. The teachers namely Irshad Ali (29), a native of Nilgiris and Fazal (23) of Vavanur, were working at a residential institution in Tirumittakode Karukaputhur.
The teachers are charged under the POCSO Act. The action was taken on the complaint of the students and parents. The parents of a grade 9 student subjected her to counselling after she showed some behavioural changes.
The student during counselling stated that she was sexually exploited by the teacher. Another student later levelled allegations against the other teacher. Investigations are on to find if more students have been sexually exploited by the arrested.
