A Lange Park teacher, who faced a charge of sexually touching a child, was freed on Friday after the child's mother testified that the ongoing court proceedings had taken a severe mental toll on her daughter.
The case, which was before the Chaguanas District Court, involved allegations that the teacher had inappropriately touched the then 11-year-old girl during private lessons at his home between April 30 and July 1, 2023.
The prosecution had alleged that the accused massaged the child's breasts, arms, legs, and shoulders.
