Angry guardians on Friday, 1 December, protested at a school in Kolkata after parents of a four-year-old girl student and her doctors said she was sexually assaulted by a teacher and possibly more men.

The girl, studying at the high-profile GD Birla Centre For Education in south Kolkata’s Ranikuthi area, was bleeding profusely when she returned from school on Thursday, 30 November, the girl’s father said. She was rushed to a hospital.

The girl’s father accused the physical education teacher of allegedly luring the child into the toilet before assaulting her.

Police have arrested two accused physical education teachers named Abhishek Ray and Mohammad Mofizuddin.

We initially thought it was some infection. We took her to the doctor who said she was physically abused. My daughter is still in a lot of pain.

Furious parents of the school students stopped the school buses from entering the premises and demanded the removal of all male teaching staff. They also told the school to ensure security for the children, including putting up CCTV cameras. The parents protested outside the premises of the school demanding the administration of the school to take stringent action.

The school is in denial that such an incident has happened at all. They are saying it’s all rubbish.

The incident has also triggered a political protest with BJP and Congress workers dissenting against the gruesome incident outside Jadavpur police station , Kolkata.

Those who are culprits must be put behind bars as a strict punishment. We demand strict punishment in this issue, no discount.This is a heinous incident and we protest it in a serious manner.

The incident comes only a few weeks after a 7-year-old student was found murdered inside Ryan International School in Gurugram.
