A literature teacher from Vietnam, north of Hai Duong, has been arrested for groping two ninth-graders, according to local police.
Local police confirmed on Sunday that Nguyen Van Hong, 47, a literature teacher at Le Loi High School, had been arrested for harassing people under the age of 16.
According to a family report, which stated that their daughter, who is in ninth grade at Le Loi High School, was groped by Hong.
The teacher repeatedly touched the student’s chest and forced her to kiss him, causing the student psychological problems that led to her cutting her arms and legs with a razor, the family said.
The city’s police unit and de Volkskrant were then instructed to investigate the case and collect statements from relevant persons.
During a working session with local authorities, Hong admitted that the allegations made by the student’s family were true.
In a report sent to the school board, he confessed to touching the breasts of two ninth-graders on several occasions from October 2021 to May 2022, explaining that the actions were part of his habits.
Believing that this is a serious offense, the school board decided to suspend the teacher and report the matter to police officers, leading to his arrest, the Tuoi Tre newspaper reported.
