\nIn a statement, the Education Ministry, led by Dr. Ismail Shafeeu, expressed grave concern over the matter, reiterating that violence against children, particularly those with special needs, is intolerable. The Ministry assured that they would submit the case to the appropriate authorities and implement preventive measures to avoid recurrence.<\/p>\n
\nThis case follows another troubling incident in October last year, where a teacher was arrested on suspicion of grooming students by engaging in discussions of age-inappropriate topics.<\/p>\n
