They were on a motorbike. According to the complaint: “While way back to the hostel, Akash had stopped the bike and allegedly had molested her. The frightened girl kept reserved as she was threatened under dire consequences, allegedly. “The school authority reportedly also had asked the girl and her family to hush up the matter.”
On Friday, the family received a bizarre call from the school authority that the girl was dismissed for her alleged misbehaviour. The family immediately rushed to the school and demanded explanation, which the authority refused to give, allegedly. Ranjit Singh, principal of the school told reporters that the girl was trying to create a mess in the school out of nothing and so she was asked to leave.
The family members then lodged a complaint with the Bankura PS and the accused Akash was booked accordingly.
