“This morning, her mom started perceiving an offensive smell from her and queried her, after much talking and questions she finally opened up and told her mom what happened.
“She said the English teacher dragged her to the toilet from the stairs and forced himself on her. We had to go to the school to deal with him before arresting him, he’s currently in the custody of the police,” the source said.
