Viqarunnisa student gives statement to court

The Viqarunnisa student, who was allegedly molested by her teacher, gave a statement to a Dhaka court on Sunday.

Metropolitan Magistrate Shamima Parvin recorded it under section 22 of the Women and Children Repre-ssion Prevention Act, 2000.

Details of her statement could not be known immediately.

The court gave the victim to her grandfather's custody. She returned home on Thursday after receiving treatment abroad.

Porimol Joydhor, a Bangla teacher of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College's Bashundhara branch, allegedly molested her at his coaching centre on May 28.

Porimol confessed to violating her twice, IO Shahadat Hossain said. He, however, denied taking any picture of the girl.

The school authorities sacked him on July 5 following protests by students and guardians.

The teacher was arrested on July 6 from Keraniganj just outside the capital, a day after the victim's father sued him with Badda Police Station for violating the girl.
