A teacher of a private coaching institute in Madhya Pradesh’s Indore was stripped and beaten up on Wednesday by a group of people, who later took him to a police station for allegedly indulging in obscene acts with a 17-year-old girl preparing for NEET exam, an official said.
A video of the teacher being thrashed by the group has gone viral on social media.
”The teacher of the private coaching institute allegedly called the teenage girl, preparing for National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET), to a cafe on the pretext of helping her in her studies. But when she reached the place, he indulged in obscene acts with her,” Tukoganj police station in-charge Jitendra Yadav said.
