A male teacher targeted an 11-year-old boy who had confided in him about family problems, and molested the child on five occasions in their primary school between 2017 and 2018.
Senior District Judge Bala Reddy convicted the 44-year-old man of five molestation charges on Friday. He cannot be named owing to a gag order to protect the victim’s identity. The boy was around seven years old when he went to live with his mother, as his father was jailed for reasons not disclosed in court documents.
They added that the victim was also not close to his mother, as she was focused on her newborn daughter. The offences came to light “by sheer chance” after the victim showed his brother a picture of the teacher, the court heard.
