Alwar School Gang Rape | False Charge Against Teachers By Ex-Staff

Earlier this month, the entire staff of a Government school in Rajasthan’s Alwar district, comprising 14 teachers and the principal, were booked in three gang rape cases on the complaints lodged by four students. The minor girls alleged that the teachers had been raping them with the help of their female colleagues.

The police registered FIRs under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act and launched investigation. One of the FIRs was based on the complaint of two sisters studying in the school, while the others were registered on the complaint of two other students.

Now, nearly after 17 days of filing of the gang rape case, the police in Bhiwadi have found that allegations were false and FIRs were filed at the behest of a former teacher. The police on Friday filed a final report (FR) in the case after concluding their investigation which revealed that a former teacher, Dev Prakash Yadav in collusion with a woman, had asked the families of five girls to file FIRs against the teaching staff.

Case:

Three FIRs were registered at a police station on December 7 in which a total of 15 persons, including teaching and clerical staff were of a government booked. Immediately after the incident, the Rajasthan police had constituted a special investigation team (SIT) to look into the matter.

No arrests were made initially, while the investigating team at Mandhan police station in Behror sub-division probed into the aspect of “false complaints” having been made against the teachers at the instance of one of their former colleagues, who was arrested on charges of molestation last year.

‘Now Accused Had Testified as Witnesses’

A teacher from the same school, accused of molesting a Dalit student, was arrested and sent to jail in December last year. Since he was released on bail recently, the police suspected that he could be involved in the complaints being lodged against the staff members, all of whom had testified against him as witnesses in the court during the trial of the case.

Police Investigation:

Police alleged that Yadav was posted in the same school and was sent to jail for sexually assaulting a minor student last year. Police further alleged that Yadav had offered money to the families of the girls.

SP (Bhiwadi) Ram Murti Joshi said that the police is likely to take action against Yadav and his aide in the case.

Bhiwadi police had long suspected Yadav’s role in the case because the teachers named in the case were witnesses in his case. He later came out of jail and hatched the conspiracy with a local woman wherein they allegedly offered money and persuaded families to file cases against the teachers, reported TOI.

Bhiwadi police said that their investigation found that Yadav had plotted the entire conspiracy with an aim to implicate teachers of the school. Along with Yadav, police are also probing the involvement of a woman identified as Mamta, who had colluded with Yadav.

Police said that action is likely to be taken against Yadav for his role in the case.
