ALAPPUZHA: An office clerk of the Government Girls Higher Secondary School, Cherthala, forced a student to watch obscene pictures on the computer in the school, according to an anonymous complaint received in the DySP office, District Crime Records Bureau (DCRB).
Mr Madanappan, sub-inspector with the DCRB, said that a complaint was registered without revealing the name or address of the student. The clerk used to take her to the computer lab and make her watch porn films, according to the complaint. “We have forwarded the complaint to the Arthungal police, which will record the detailed statement of the accused soon,” he said.
The school, where 1,500 students study, is one of the oldest and largest in Cherthala. The clerk was involved in misbehaviour with the students in the past as well. A woman SI visited the school and recorded the teachers’ statement. The Arthungal police have launched a detailed investigation into the case.
The school had made headlines recently for making students sell illegal lucky coupons in the name of school development. This activity under the School Management and Development Committee (SMDC) was stopped after intervention from District Education Officer.
