The teachers do not deserve public trial

There were many reported incidents of alleged abuses  of teachers against students and several of them are now facing administrative and criminal cases. These incidents are usually sensationalized and put the teachers on shame and public trial.This treatment to teachers is not  fair. I firmly believe that teachers will not willfully hurt or abuse students.There are certain circumstances that trigger the teacher to do such act.

Under normal situation, teachers love their work and they know the consequence of hurting or abusing students.People should understand that teachers do not deal with saints or behaved students.For about 6 hours of contact with students, you cannot expect a teacher to hold on all the time. There will always be situations that they could commit undesirable treatment if triggered with unexpected circumstances that may be committed by undisciplined students.

In this case, teacher should not be subjected to public trial. He deserves reasonable  treatment of laws. His case must be treated privately just like the treatment given to minors. Not because he is minor but  because he is working with minors and the motive of his act cannot be considered willful act.I do not claim that he be free from prosecution but I think he must be given opportunities to defend himself before the court and not before public trial.The dignity of teachers must be preserved in the eyes of the learner and the society. Until after the trial is finished, we cannot put him on shame. He must be presumed innocent until proven guilty.
