Sir put his hand under my clothes

By ANNA POLIAH
AN 11-year-old student has revealed sordid details about a teacher of the Orange Valley Government School.

The student, who was in Standard Two at the time of the incident, alleged that the teacher had her perform oral sex on him in the school’s staff room on several occasions.

The child further claimed that the teacher performed oral sex on her in the staff room.

“Sir used to put his hand under my clothes and place his finger in my vagina,” the shocking revelation was made to TnT Mirror.

The student was eight years old when the incident was alleged to have taken place between September 2002 and March 2003.

Sexually abused

Sexually abused
three years ago.


She was transferred shortly after.

The girl’s mother told Mirror she became aware of the problem when two boys of her daughter’s class informed her of what they had seen.

“The boys told me that the teacher used to call my daughter at his desk and put his hands under her uniform.

“They also told me that my daughter went in the staff room with the teacher regularly.

“The boys told me my daughter would pass through the back door of the classroom and then the teacher would pass through another entrance at the front of the classroom.

“I questioned my daughter and she told me exactly what was happening,” the Orange Valley, Couva woman said.

The child’s mother said: “I observed a rude look on my daughter’s face a month before but I did not take it on.

“I was a bit concerned when my daughter received a walkman as a Christmas gift in 2002 from her teacher.

“She has pretty, grey eyes and I thought the teacher gave her the gift because he liked her in a fatherly way.

“I did not expect this.

“When I heard of my child’s abuse and questioned the teacher, he said the gift was given because my daughter did well in exams.

“My daughter was an F student from First Year at the school.

“She was graded F in the Christmas exam of 2002, yet the teacher said she did well.

“I have all the test results as proof.”

The woman said her daughter told her the teacher said what he did was a secret between them and she should not tell anyone.

She claims that the child was given money to remain quiet.

When the child was taken to the Couva Police in March, 2003, her mother said: “She whispered her experience into the ears of the Woman Police Constable (WPC), who interviewed her.

“She was sent to the District Medical Officer (DMO) for examination.

“It was discovered she was not sexually active.

“The matter was also reported to the Ministry of Education.

“No steps were taken against the teacher.

“The police claimed that the file was lost,” the abused child’s mother related.

Police are now taking a fresh statement from the child.

The latest instance of child molestation at the school was reported to have taken place on June 20 to a six-year-old student. Inspector Khan of the Couva Police Station is investigating.
