Bareilly (UP), Nov 13 (PTI) A computer teacher at an English-medium school in Uttar Pradesh’s Bareilly district has been arrested for allegedly molesting several minor girl students of Class 3 during a computer class, police said on Friday.
The accused, identified as Ayush Sharma, a resident of Mahadevpuram locality, was arrested and sent to jail after a case was registered against him under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, police said.
