The victim had reported the case to police after Baniya allegedly tried to force himself onto her on Sunday. Apparently, Baniya had called the girl to his room on the pretext of checking her homework, asked her personal questions about whether she had a boyfriend and forced her into talking sexually explicit contents. Baniya then attempted to rape after holding her by the waist, but the girl had somehow managed to free herself from his clutches before running outside for help.The students and teacher s who heard her screams then called her parents. After the incident came to light, the victims along with other girls at the hostel complained about Baniya sexually harassing them on several other occasions. They told the parents and teacher s that Baniya had previously attempted to touch them inappropriately, and even watch them undress at times. In response to the incident, the school board and teacher s have piled pressure on parents to internally solve the issue, and have offered monetary compensation and free education. The unsatisfied parents then called the police on the school board.
