It is said in the complaint that apart from teaching in the College, Lecturer Salim Reza also tutors students privately in a rented room in nearby Zola Par. During private tutoring, he repeatedly made lewd suggestions, including regularly leering at the complaining student. He made him fail in Bengali subject in the last annual examination of class 11 as he did not agree to the bad proposal. Later, when contacted about this, he asked to meet him personally. When they visited her in a rented room for private tutoring, he forcibly touched her on several sensitive parts of her body and sexually assaulted her.

Later the student went there with the cyber team. At that time, members of the cyber team checked the mobile phone of teacher Salim Raza and found evidence of many objectionable messages being exchanged with many other students. In this incident, they along with lecturer Salim Reza went to the college vice-principal and informed the college authorities in writing.
