AGRA, Feb. 6 -- A Class 12 student was booked by the Mainpuri police for allegedly physically assaulting a 26-year-old teacher out of unrequited love and then slashing her lips with a sharp object after attempting to kiss her forcibly. The accused was a repeat offender and had harassed the victim in the past, after which she had quit the school, said police. The incident took place on Agra road in Mainpuri on January 20, when the woman was on her way to a tuition class. The video of the purported incident, which went viral on Wednesday, showed the accused stalking his teacher and then attacking her. The student allegedly dragged the victim on the street. After slumping to the ground, the victim recovered, but the accused chased her again and slashed her lips with a sharp-edged object before fleeing. The injured teacher was taken to the Saifai Medical College and Hospital and then to a higher centre in Agra for treatment, said cops. An FIR was lodged by the teacher's brother on February 1. He claimed that his sister had quit the school after earlier harassment by the student, but the accused continued to stalk her even after that. The accused was booked under Sections 74 (assault or force against woman to outrage her modesty), 118(2) (causing hurt by dangerous weapon), 351(3) (criminal intimidation), 296 (obscene acts) of the BNS, said police. Deputy SP (Mainpuri city) SK Singh said a case was registered when the matter was brought to the knowledge of the police. Explaining the delay after registering of case on February 1, he said efforts were underway to nab the minor who will be presented before the juvenile court. Fateh Bahadur Bhadauria, in-charge at Kotwali police station in Mainpuri, said the accused is a 16-17-year-old boy, a student of Class 12, and the teacher is aged 26. "We are going to get the victim teacher's statement recorded in court and other legal compliance is being undertaken against the minor accused," he said on Thursday. The FIR (copy of which is with HT) stated that the teacher was being harassed by the student of Class 12 at a private school. The matter was taken up with the student's mother during a parent-teacher meeting, but the change in his behaviour was short-lived. He again began stalking the teacher, blocked her way and made obscene gestures, forcing the victim to leave the job and join another school in Mainpuri....
