In a disturbing incident, a minor schoolgirl was allegedly sexually assaulted in the Cantonment Police Station limits of Cuttack, raising serious concerns among parents and local residents over student safety.
According to police sources, the accused, a bus driver linked to the student’s daily school transportation, has been taken into custody following a complaint. His identity has been withheld due to legal provisions and the ongoing investigation.
Preliminary findings suggest that the victim, a student of a private school in the city, regularly used the bus service for her commute. Authorities are currently probing the exact circumstances of the alleged assault, including the location where the incident may have occurred and whether there were any lapses in supervision.
Police officials stated that statements of the victim and potential witnesses are being recorded to establish a clear sequence of events. Investigators are also verifying whether the vehicle was directly operated by the school administration or privately contracted for student transportation.
The incident has sparked demands from parents and civil society groups for enhanced safety measures in school transport systems. Many have called for mandatory installation and regular monitoring of functional CCTV cameras inside school buses, stricter background verification of drivers and attendants, and improved oversight mechanisms.
Senior police officers have assured that a thorough investigation is underway. They confirmed that appropriate legal action will be initiated based on medical examination results and findings of the probe.
The case comes amid heightened public sensitivity following a recent alleged sexual assault of a Class 7 student in Odisha, which led to multiple arrests and was placed under the ‘red flag’ category for priority investigation.
