Bengaluru, Dec 7: The police have arrested a 50-year-old man on charge of sexually assaulting seven minor boys who he tutored in Arabic and Kannada at his house under the limits of Ashok Nagar police station in Bengaluru.

Shockingly, the accused Muneer Abbas Ali, who hails from hails from Gauribidanur, was working as a muezzin of a mosque in Bengaluru for past 10 years.

“He is married and has two children at Alipur in Gauribidanur. He has a Master of Education degree and taught Arabic, Kannada and Hindi,” a police officer said.

The alleged crime came to light after some of his students refused to go to his house for tuitions. One parent questioned his child who told him what was happening.

“The family alerted the parents of the other boys in the class. As many as seven cases have been filed with the Ashok Nagar police since Wednesday. We suspect that many victims and their parents have not come forward fearing social stigma,” a police officer said.

Ali was booked under various sections of the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act.
