The Ambernath police have arrested a 35-year-old teacher for allegedly sexually assaulting three schoolboys aged between 9 and 15 in private tuition classes in Ambernath. The incident took place at a private tuition class between July and October. The teacher taught every subject to the students.
The incident came to light when the football teacher asked the students why they had not gone to classes over the last few days. The students told the female teacher that the accused would tell them to remove their clothes, and massage the teacher’s head and back. Thereafter, the football teacher alerted a friend working with a non-governmental organisation and approached the police station on Saturday to lodge a case against the teacher.
