According to the FIR, her parents came to know about the assault on Wednesday, after they picked her up from school. “There is an ayah who is supposed to accompany the children to the bathroom. She should explain where she was. Only the teacher, principal and the ayah can tell me how my child reached the bathroom on her own and was trapped by the sweeper,” said the father. He claimed that just days prior to the incident, he had spoken to the class teacher about the presence of several “male staff” in the play as well as classroom areas of the school. The child’s father has also alleged that the school had erred on other counts, including poor installation of CCTV cameras.
