Suri: Two women teachers were arrested on Saturday for allegedly strip searching a girl student on the suspicion that she had stolen money, at Kaligati Smriti Nari Siksha Niketan in Suri in Birbhum district, police sources said on Saturday.
The girl, a student of class-XI, filed a complaint with the police that two teachers, Chaitali Gupta and Lipika Saha, took her to the teachers' room on Friday and stripped searched her alleging that she had stolen Rs 150 from another student, the sources said.
The money, however, was not found on her.
The girl's father told the police that she broke into tears after returning home.
