Anjali Anand recalls getting sexually abused by dance teacher

In a conversation wit Hauterrfly, Anjali recalled her childhood episode where her dance teacher under the pretense of being a father figure misbehaved with her. She said that it happened right after her father had passed away. "I didn't know what to do. I was eight, just after my dad passed. He told me, ‘I am your dad,’ and I believed him because I didn't know any better. Then he started very slowly—he gave me a peck on my lips and said, ‘It is what dads do.’" she recalled.
