Lahore: Physics teacher Accused of Sexual Harassment!

On August 27, a committee at the Government College University (GCU) in Lahore, Pakistan found a teacher, guilty of sexually harassing female students after a complaint was filed against him in July’2020.

According to local media, screenshots and pictures were posted, of a teacher of the GCU Physics Department alleging that a student and her friends were repeatedly failed by the accused in examinations and were sexually harassed by him.

The Facebook group member said he decided to communicate on behalf of the victim who alleged that the teacher sought to remain in contact with her and her friends.

Despite her turning off her WiFi, he relentlessly kept calling and demanding that she and her friends attend the video call when one of the students decided to expose him and took some screenshots in which he was indecent and seemingly drunk.

According to reports, the post that was uploaded included call logs, messages and screenshots of the mentioned video calls, demanding that the institute’s Vice Chancellor Professor Dr Asghar Zaidi take action.

The teacher has been suspended since the complaint was lodged against him in July. “The report will be forwarded to the anti-harassment committee to recommend imposition of penalty on the teacher,” he was quoted as saying. Zaidi also stated the anti-harassment committee will be submitting its recommendations that week.

“Action under PEEDA Act (Punjab Employees Efficiency, Discipline and Accountability Act) will also be taken against the teacher as he is found guilty of harassment,” he added.

After all this, no reports of action taken against the accused have emerged, which is an absolute shame and a clear demonstration of how corrupt the system is!
