The 59-year old has reportedly molested two 14-year old pupils.

Sources confirm that the principal of the elementary school from the village of Stropcka has been suspended.

It was one of the victim’s brothers who discovered several text messages on his sister’s cellphone, prompting him to immediately go and confront the school’s principal.

Then, the families of the two minors denounced the case at the Local Education Directorate.

According to preliminary information, the two young girls admitted in the presence of a psychologist that the principal had been molesting them.
