The Sewri police have arrested a 35-year-old Arabic language tutor for allegedly behaving inappropriately with his minor girl students, aged between 12 and 14, who attended his Arabic classes at a religious institute in Sewri. The accused, who also lived on the premises, has been remanded to two days of police custody.

According to the complaint, a 33-year-old woman approached the Sewri police on October 29 after her 14-year-old daughter confided that the tutor had behaved in an objectionable manner during lessons. The girl had been attending classes with the accused between March 2024 and October 2025.
