The Gujarat police have booked a Madarasa teacher identified as Samsuddin Haji Suleman after receiving a complaint from a 19 year old woman that he had raped her continuously for 4 years. The survivor had recently got married. After her husband came to know of it, he urged her to file a complaint against the Madrasa teacher.
The complaint was filed at Nara police station under Nakhatrana taluka of Kutch district.
Elaborating her ordeal in the complaint she said that she was sent to the Madrasa to learn Arabic and Urdu when she was 15 years old. One day in 2015, the accused maulana had given his clothes to wash and sent her to the bathroom after the class.
The maulana had immediately pounced on her from behind and raped her. The girl stated in her complaint that the maulana threatened her to not disclose about the incident to anyone and that he would tarnish her character if she did.
A similar incident happened in a madrasa in Uttar Pradesh’ Awas Vikas Hanspuram in 2019 when a maulana raped a minor. He had picked the student from her home under the pretext of filling application for scholarship and later raped her.
