Teacher suspected of sex offenses against minor released to house arrest

A teacher suspected of sex offenses against a young female student was released to house arrest after a district court rejected a police appeal. He is banned from teaching minors for 45 days.

The teacher suspected of committing sex offenses against a student under the age of 10 was released to house arrest, as first reported by criminal affairs reporter Li Ayesh. The District Court rejected the appeal filed by the police, who argued that the suspicion against him had strengthened due to additional material. The court ruled that the risk and concern of obstruction could be addressed through supervision and restrictive conditions, and the judge noted that no attempt on his part to obstruct the investigation had been presented. The teacher is prohibited from teaching minors for 45 days. He will remain under house arrest until Monday afternoon, and during this period he is prohibited from using a mobile phone or computer. His name is still banned from publication.
