Teacher allegedly gangraped
by students in Agra

Security personnel were on Wednesday deployed in strength at a missionary school in Agra following threats of demonstrations by political parties to protest the alleged rape of a young teacher by her students.

The teacher was allegedly gangraped at a farmhouse on the outskirts of the city a few days ago, but police said they could not initiate action for want of a complaint or a report on the incident.

General secretary of the local unit of the Samajwadi Yuvjanan Sabha Avanindra Kumar Yadav alleged that the victim has been pressured to keep silent about the incident.

The outfit's activists blocked traffic on the city's main road and gave a 48-hour ultimatum to the authorities to arrest the culprits.

Local Bajrang Dal leader Shyam Bhaduria has also demanded action against the culprits.

Following threats of demonstrations by political parties, a large contingent of police and Provincial Armed Constabulary jawans has been deployed at the school.
