According to police, the child studies in Class 3 at a school in Goregaon and regularly attended tuition at Rathod’s home in the JP Dex building, Malad. On the day of the incident, his sister dropped him off for class. Later, when she went to pick him up, she found him crying with a badly burned hand. The teacher dismissed it as drama, but the boy later told his family that she had pressed his hand onto a candle.
The child was taken to Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Hospital in Kandivali for treatment. His father then filed a police complaint at Kurar Police Station. Based on the complaint, police registered a case under laws related to child cruelty and arrested the teacher. Investigators are also collecting statements from the child, his family, and other students.
Locals have claimed that this is not the first time Rajshree Rathod has used harsh punishments. The case has sparked anger among parents and child rights groups, who are now demanding strict action and better safety checks for private tuition centers. Authorities have said the investigation is ongoing, and more evidence, including photos of the injuries, has been submitted.
