PONDA: A Ponda school teacher on Friday complained that a student was allegedly molested by a school peon December 20, 2012.
According to police the school peon, a resident of Veling-Priol-Kunkoliem panchayat allegedly molested the 12-year-old Class VII girl student on December 20, 2012.
A school teacher reported to Ponda police that the peon had allegedly held the child's hand and "dragged" her within the school premises.
Police also expressed surprise over the behaviour of the school headmistress who on Friday informed Ponda police of the incident but asked a teacher to file the complaint.
"The headmistress also sanctioned half-day leave to the peon she had accused of the alleged molestation. When police approached her to arrest the accused, she said he had been bitten by a dog and she had sanctioned him leave," police said. Police added that they are puzzled by the headmistress' behavior and were examining her role in the case. Police said an offence has been registered against the peon under the relevant sections of law.
