A private school teacher in Gurugram has been arrested for allegedly harassing a class 7 girl, according to police reports. The complaint states that Sanju Verma, the teacher, coerced the girl into accepting his Instagram follow request and subsequently began sending her “obscene” messages on the app.
The girl’s father, who lodged the complaint, mentioned that his daughter had followed Verma on Instagram using her mother’s account.
“Soon after, Verma started sending messages to my daughter and used obscene language. When my daughter informed me about it, I approached the police,” the father stated in his complaint.
Following this complaint, an FIR was registered against Verma under Section 12 of the POCSO Act at the Women’s Police Station in Sector 51 on Monday. He was arrested on Tuesday morning. Virender Vij, DCP (Crime against Women), confirmed that Verma has joined the investigation and is currently being questioned.
