More abject depravity from the Education Dept. of the Religion of Tolerance & Understanding:

A six year-old Indian Muslim girl from the Islamic School in Shahpur Mill Compound was allegedly paraded naked by her class teacher because her handwriting was not good enough. She was later locked up in a washroom and made to clean the toilet bowls.

The parents confronted the trustee, but he denied the incident had taken place.

Outraged parents of the class I student, who came to know about the incident from her classmate, confronted school trustee Iqbal Patel. However, Patel vehemently denied such an incident had taken place at school. The girl’s parents filed an FIR with Shahpur police following which the teacher was arrested on Monday evening.

Incidentally, in January, parents had accused the all-girls school of forcing their children to clean toilets.
The girl’s father Sharavar Sheikh told Mirror, “Our child is very enthusiastic about going to school. A few days ago, when she started making excuses for not attending classes, we sensed something was wrong.

Although we asked her the reason, she made vague excuses and dodged the issue. It was through a classmate of hers that we came to know about the incident. We are appalled.”

They allege another Indian Muslim girl was also paraded along with their daughter.

According to the girl’s mother Samina, class teacher Zebabanu found her daughter’s handwriting illegible and decided to punish her in the most “horrendous” manner.

“She stripped my child naked and paraded her in front of the class. As if that was not enough, she locked her up in the school washroom and made her clean the toilet bowls. Zeba warned my daughter not to tell us about the punishment unless she wanted to endure more,” says an outraged Samina.

Apparently such punishments as those meted out to this indian Muslim girl take place with alarming regularity at this school. The Madrassa, like others in non-Muslim countries, operates as a ‘charitable’ institution outside state strictures. But don’t think this kind of behaviour is confined to the developing world, or an ‘isolated incident’.

As we have reported on other occasions, Islamic religious schools are notorious for child abuse. Even in Britain and other developed countries, humiliation and cruel and unusual punishment are alarmingly regular occurrences at these schools; and blind eyes are often turned by the authorities for fear of ‘causing offence’.

It’s not just virulent hatred toward the kuffar that is on the curriculum at these Islamic schools.
Abusive punishments by authority figures (often, as here, with dark sexual overtones) such as this disturbing assault on a young Indian Muslim girl, are also alarmingly common.

Just why is Islam so brutally harsh on women and children? Anyone from MPACUK care to comment?
