Viqarunnisa teacher Jayadhar remanded in custody

The Viqarunnisa Noon School and College teacher Parimal Dayadhar, arrested on Wednesday on charges of raping a Class X student, was on Thursday remanded in police custody for five days for interrogation.

The Badda police officer-in-charge (investigation), inspector Shahadat Hossain, produced Jayadhar in a Dhaka court in the afternoon seeking him to be remanded for 10 days.

Metropolitan magistrate Shamima Parvin allowed him to be remanded for five days.

Shahadat, also investigation officer of the case, on Thursday told New Age that they would start interrogating the teacher in the evening.

'We will try to know whether anyone helped him in this connection. We will also try to seize the video record that he made with his mobile,' he said.

The Detectives Branch arrested Jayadhar, a teacher of Bangla at the school's Bashundhara campus, at a house of his relatives at Keraniganj on Wednesday after the victim's father had filed a case with the Badda police on charges of raping her daughter.

Jayadhar, who qualified in the BCS 29 exams for the administration cadre after his bachelor and master's degrees from Bangabandhu College at Tungipara in Gopalganj, went into hiding after students of the school and their parents had gone on demonstrations demanding his arrest.

The school authorities also sacked the teacher after a meeting of the governing body on Tuesday.

Two other teachers at the school of the same campus — Barun Chandra Barman of commerce and Abdul Kalam Azad of religious instructions —were also suspended for their indecent behaviour with students.

Jayadhar is married and has a three-year-old son, DB deputy commissioner Monirul said. Jayadhar is from Tungipara in Gopalganj.
