Teacher arrested for molesting boys

Manila police arrested Wednesday night a male science teacher of the Tondo High School after he allegedly sexually molested four male students inside the school’s comfort room.

Reports identified the suspect as Robert Fordan, 40, of Rawis St., Tondo, Manila. According to the police, Fordan last Tuesday afternoon allegedly told the four teen-age boys, all his students, that he had flunked them.

After the victims allegedly pleaded for his reconsideration, Fordan allegedly motioned the victims to follow him to the school’s comfort room.

Once inside the comfort room, Fordan allegedly forced the four boys to undress and perform oral sex on him one after the other.

The victims were later assured by the suspect that they would be given passing grades.

But one of the victims reported the incident which ended in the arrest of the suspect in his residence. – Mike Frialde
