Chandigarh: Woman 'molester' attempts suicide after teen-victim separated from her
Disturbing scenes unfolded at a 14-year-old Chandigarh boy's house earlier this week as his former 34-year-old teacher, who was allegedly sexually abusing him, gulped down cough syrup in front of his family. She was demanding that they continue sending him to her for 'tuitions.' The parents soon approached police, who arrested the mother of two young daughters yesterday.
The boy started taking tuitions from her in September
The victim and the accused, a science teacher at a government school, are neighbors in Ram Darbar Colony. The boy and his sister started attending tuitions with her from September'17. But she requested their parents to send them separately so she could 'focus' on the Class 10 boy. Soon, she started luring him physically, even giving him a SIM card to stay in touch with her.
She locked the boy inside her room, screaming and yelling
When his grades dropped in March, the boy's parents took him out of tuitions, but she tried to convince them to keep sending him. They agreed to meet her along with their son at her house Monday. But high drama unfolded as she locked him in her room in front of his parents, her husband and her daughters, screaming he'll stay with her.
Woman now booked under POCSO
Neighbors rushed when they heard the commotion and rescued the boy, but she wasn't yet done. As the teenager and his parents reached their house, she followed them and barged in, grabbed a bottle of cough syrup and finished it, declaring she was committing suicide. Someone informed police, who took her to hospital. She was finally arrested yesterday and a case under POCSO lodged.
