KARACHI: Two professors of Karachi University’s Mass Communication department are accused of sexual harassment in a complaint filed by six students.
The complainants maintain that the teachers allegedly harassed their students by sending inappropriate messages on WhatsApp, screenshots of which have been attained by media.
“They try their best to play mind games with female students to gain favors that has sexual overtones, all with the ever-lurking threat of failing them or putting them into the short of attendance list,” read the complaint to the vice chancellor.
