A public school teacher in Santa Maria, a densely populated suburb of the Brazilian capital Brasilia, is accused of sexually assaulting two of his students, one aged 10 and the other aged 11, in his classroom. The teacher, who has since been fired, is the subject of an investigation by the Civil Police (Judicial) of Brasilia.
The violence came to light by accident when the mother of one of the children read messages on her daughter’s mobile phone that the minor had exchanged with other classmates, in which she described in detail the violence she had suffered.
According to these reports, later confirmed by the girl and her colleague personally to the school management, the Children’s Care Board and the police, the bullying, the most recent of which occurred in early August, always took place inside the classroom, before the start of the first lesson or during recess.
In the reports, two students detailed that the teacher called them, saying he needed to talk to them without other students present, locked the room and began kissing them and running his hands over their private parts. However, according to the shocking account of two children, the teacher made them grab his penis and with great persistence forced two girls to perform oral sex on him.
Fearing the teacher, they told school officials and agents, said nothing at home, but expressed their anguish on social media to the colleagues they trusted most.
After the teacher complained and was suspended, another student, also a minor, plucked up the courage to say that the teacher, having found her alone, put his hands under her school uniform shirt and fondled her breasts.
