Teacher held for sexual abuse of students

The Alandi police on Friday arrested a 24-year-old teacher at an ashram near Alandi for alleged sexual abuse of his students for the last
two months.

The police have identified the suspect as Vighneshwar Patil of Jalgaon. The incident came into light when a 14-year-old student disclosed the incident to his parents, said inspector Ratansinh Rajput.

"We have booked Patil under section 377 (unnatural offences) of the Indian Penal Code. The suspect had sexually abused five other students also from the ashram," Rajput said.

Rajput said that, according the complaint, the suspect used to call the students to his room and, on the pretext of massaging his hands and legs, used to sodomise them.

"There are 16 boys studying at the ashram. The suspect had abused five of them in the last two months. We are investigating whether other students have also been abused," Rajput said.
