Victim's parents had tried to contact the principal several times but failed. Police sources later was quoted as saying, "The mother said the boy had gone to the toilet during the lunch break when Alphonso came there and inappropriately touched him."
Police arrested the principal. Cops were quoted as saying, "We have arrested Alphonso and booked him under relevant sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act. He was produced before the local court."
The school was shut for 2-3 days to avoid any kind of protest inside school premises. However, after the arrest of the accused, victim's parents and relatives vandalised property of the school.
Meanwhile, school authorities issued a notice which read, "Alphonso has been suspended. There is zero tolerance policy for any conduct of this nature. We are fully cooperating with the police. We are also installing CCTV cameras in the school premises."
