A public high school teacher is now behind bars awaiting investigation and the filing of criminal charges against him for allegedly raping a student in Tanjay City, Negros Oriental.
The suspect, whose name is being withheld, was accused by the 15-year-old female student of sexually assaulting her recently, police reports said.
The complainant told the police that she and her boyfriend were at the teacher’s house last Tuesday, a regular holiday, after the suspect asked them to come and help him with the household chores.
The suspect was reportedly entertaining a co-teacher and having some alcoholic drinks at the time, while his wife was also in the house before the purported rape incident, a police report said.
The complainant claimed that she and her boyfriend were forced by the teacher to have sex but the boyfriend refused. Instead, the girl claimed the suspect raped her in a grassy field about 30 meters from his house.
The girl reported the incident to the police, who immediately apprehended the teacher who is now detained at the Tanjay City police station.*JFP
