A nine-year-old girl, who persistently refused to go to school, on Thursday opened up to her parents that the reason was alleged sexual abuse by a male teacher, the Musheerabad police said on Friday.
The parents of the girl told the police that she had expressed disinterest in going to school in some way or the other since she was in her third standard.
“She would go two or three days and stay home the rest of the week complaining of stomach ache or headache. She even asked us to change her school this year, but we continued,” the complaint read.
