Staff Reporter:
A Dhaka court yesterday placed Murad Hossain Sarkar, a senior teacher of Viqarunnisa Noon School and College’s Azimpur branch, on a two-day remand in a case lodged for allegedly sexually harassing a student.
Dhaka Metropolitan Magistrate Zaki-Al-Farabi passed the order as police produced Murad before the court and pleaded to place him on seven-day remand.
He was arrested from his Kalabagan home early yesterday.
The school authorities from an emergency meeting yesterday suspended Murad Hossain Sarkar. He was withdrawn from his regular duty at the day-shift of the Azimpur Branch and was attached to the princi-pal’s office as the allegations against him surfaced on February 24.
