The three teachers, aged between 37 and 47, have been arrested under various sections of the POCSO act. Furthermore, they have also been suspended by the District Education Officer.

As per a report by the Deccan Herald , the incident came to light after the headmaster of the school went to the student's house to inquire why she hadn't attended school since January 5, 2025.

The assault occurred on January 2, 2025. The parents of the girl initially told the headmaster that the student was not attending school due to acute pain in her abdomen.
