hyderabad: After the Cyberabad police’s extensive campaign to reach out to students and sensitise them about ‘good touch’ and ‘bad touch’, several schoolgirls have come out with harrowing stories of how they were sexually abused. When a Class II student distributed chocolates in class one day, her classmates enjoyed the treat. But when the 8-year-old began giving away chocolates every other day, her teacher became a bit suspicious. Where was the girl getting the chocolates from? The teacher took the child into confidence and started talking to her.



The little girl opened up. She confided in the teacher about what had been happening. Two of her neighbours — a 52-year-old barber and a 55-year-old security guard — would take her to the terrace and sexually abuse her. After the act, they would give her money to buy chocolates. The girl did not even realise that the two men had been abusing her If the teacher was alert enough to notice that something was amiss – even when the only clue was something as innocuous as the child frequently distributing chocolates — it was because of a programme called ‘bala Mitra’ organised by the Cyberabad police for teachers and students of various schools. During the numerous such programmes that are being conducted, girls are being educated about ‘bad touch’ and ‘good touch’. In the case of the 8-year-old girl who distributed chocolates, the two men were arrested by the SHE Teams of Cyberabad police.


Another case that came out after the campaign is that of a 14-year-old girl studying in a school at Jeedimetla. A 46-year-old man, known to her family, started talking to her in a sexually-coloured manner. When she was alone at home on July 1, 2019 around 9 am, the man entered the house and tried to sexually abuse her.Having been taught not to remain silent in the event of an attack, the girl raised a hue and cry and her neighbours rushed to her help but the culprit managed to escape. The girl informed her class teacher of what had happened who in turn informed the police. The man was arrested and sent to jail. Girl students of a school recently brought to the notice of their teacher that an ice-cream vendor was misbehaving with them. The girls informed the teacher that the man was touching their private parts. Action was taken against the man soon after the teacher rang up the police.


In yet another case, four girls of a school who used to go to a xerox-cum-kirana shop near their school informed their teacher that the shop owner was taking some of the girls inside the shop and misbehaving with them. The girl informed that he was touching their private parts. The She Team which was informed about this took the statement of the girls and apprehended the man after filing a case against him. His shop, which was close to the school, was also closed. When a few girls complained to their teacher about how a bus driver and conductor were passing lewd comments about them, she informed the police and She Teams arrested the duo. TSRTC authorities were also asked to take disciplinary action against them.
