Sexual Harassment Uncovered at Karimnagar School, Hidden Camera Suspected
Imagine a school where some girls were being treated badly by a helper named Yakub.
They were scared to say anything at first.
But one day, at a special meeting about safety, they finally told their parents and the person in charge.
The girls even thought there might be a secret camera in their bathroom!
An investigation was started by the district leaders.
They found out that Yakub had been misbehaving and taking pictures to scare the girls.
The principal of the school got in trouble for not helping when they heard about it before.
Yakub was arrested and put in jail.
Leaders said it's important for anyone being hurt or harassed to speak up, and they promised to keep their names secret.
Sexual harassment and a suspected hidden camera were uncovered at a Zilla Parishad High School in Karimnagar.
Girl students reported harassment by school attender Mohammad Yakub Pasha over nearly a year.
The incident came to light during a safety awareness program where students shared their experiences.
Investigators confirmed the allegations, finding that Pasha allegedly used morphed photos to intimidate students.
The school principal was suspended for failing to act on previous complaints, and Pasha was arrested.
