Two teachers of Aduman Senior High School in the Ashanti Region have been remanded into police custody by the Nsuta Circuit Court over allegations of sexual misconduct involving a male student.
The suspects have been identified as 39-year-old Isaac Yankey, the school’s chaplain, and 37-year-old Kwabena Kwakye Palance, an Information and Communications Technology (ICT) teacher.
The two were arrested on November 10 following allegations of sexual misconduct involving the student.
Both teachers had earlier been interdicted by the school authorities pending investigations into the matter.
Their remand follows their appearance before the Nsuta Circuit Court, which ordered that they remain in police custody as investigations continue.
The case has raised concerns about student safety and the responsibility of teachers and school authorities to protect learners under their care.
The suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction.
