Srinagar: A seven-year-old girl was allegedly molested by her teacher at a religious school at Nagrota in the outskirts of the city, a police official said on Thursday.

The girl’s mother lodged a complaint on Monday alleging that her daughter was “raped by her teacher” at a local madrasa, PTI reported today.

She alleged that the girl, after returning from school, complained pain in private parts, the official said, adding a case was registered against the accused who was arrested yesterday.

A medical examination, however, did not confirm rape.

Further investigation into the case was going on, the official said.
