A TEACHER who was charged with sexual touching of an 11-year-old girl at his home, had the case against him dropped after the child and her mother declined to give evidence on the alleged offence.

It was alleged that the teacher on a date between April 30 and July 1, 2023, sexually touched the child who went to his home for private lessons for her school work.

The prosecution had 13 witness statements in the matter including three from the child, two from her mother and one from her grandmother.
