Malappuram: Just two days after the Tirur police arrested a madrassa teacher for sexually abusing seven Class I girl students, two more cases of child abuse involving religious teachers were reported from the district on Saturday.
Police have begun their hunt for a madrassa teacher at Puthuparamba in Kottakkal after several children alleged that he had been sexually exploiting them for almost a year. The details of the abuse tumbled out after the parents of the children called up the Childline authorities. They said the parents had lodged a complaint with the madrassa authorities who hushed up the matter and dismissed the teacher. Kottakkal sub-inspector Manjith Lal said the police have collected statements from the abused children and that they have widened their search for the accused.
In another incident, Tirur police have received a complaint of child sexual abuse against a madrassa teacher at Paravanna. The abused boy's parents lodged a complaint with the Childline authorities who forwarded it to the police.
Sub-inspector Sunil Pulikkal said the police will register a case against the teacher after collecting the boy's statement. Though incidents of sexual abuse of children by madrassa teachers have been widely reported there seems to be no official system in place to prevent such incidents.
Recently, a Christian pastor was arrested in Manjeri for sexually abusing a 13-year-old girl and her 11-year-old brother while carrying out exorcism to treat their mental health problems. In another case, Kalapakanchery police recently arrested two Madrassa teachers for sexually abusing more than fifteen boys of a madrassa.
A madrassa teacher in Pookottumpadam was arrested for molesting a Class II student at Koottampara two months ago. In 2015, 27 sexual abuse cases were reported against madrassa teachers in various parts of Malappuram.
