A fourth year female student in one of the city’s public university got more than she bargained for when she received a suspension of 1,000 academic days for s*xually harassing a lecturer.
Mary (not her real name), who was pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Engineering, is said to have sneaked into the senior lecturer’s office at around 6.30pm to negotiate for marks after receiving a supplementary.
However, she was in for a rude shock when the lecturer called the campus security and reported that the student, who was dressed for the occasion in a micro-miniskirt, was behaving in a suggestive way. The incident created a commotion in the campus after male students, who got wind of the story, threatened to strip her down.
The lecturer’s complaint later reached the university senate, where Mary denied the allegations. However, she was found to have behaved inappropriately and suspended as an example to other female students. Interestingly, it is said that cases of s*xual harassment by male lectures have been on the raise at the university. But it appears this time the hunter had become the hunted.
