EWN reports that a Northern Cape teacher has been placed on preliminary suspension following alleged sexual assault. Police arrested the man last week in connection with the rape of a 13-year-old girl at a Kimberley primary school.
The alleged sexual assault took place on several occasions between September and October on the school grounds. The suspect has been in custody following his arrest on Friday and is set to appear in court on Monday. The Northern Cape Education Department's Geoffrey van der Merwe said they were appalled and saddened by the claims and have since launched an independent probe into the matter.
