The former headteacher of Vikings high school in Kalaki district, Marcel Domniano Adunya has been arrested and is currently being held by police in Soroti city for allegedly sodomizing students.
According to info we receivd, Marcel was arrested on Monday afternoon after being found with four male students at his home in Kengere Ward in Soroti. It is alleged that Adunya has been making advances and sodomizing a number of students from Vikings high school, something that led to his expulsion earlier in June.
After the termination of his contract, Adunya reportedly continued engaging students of the school in unlawful sexual acts. His luck ran out when the parents of some students sought the whereabouts of their children who had reported back to school for the holiday program.
The parents started tracing for the lost students until Monday when they found them at Adunya’s home. During his arrest, Adunya reportedly claimed that the four students were part of his class for the holiday program. Some of the students told journalists that Adunya trailed them from school to their villages while making advances for the unlawful sexual act because he claimed that Adunya would promise to pay their fees up to the university, and buy them fancy phones and gifts to lure them into acts against nature. The students, whose identities have been concealed for their own safety, said that Adunya would use his office, washrooms, or his car to sodomize students at school.
"This is a man who can call you during late hours, you don't find him calling you during day time. He always calls during late time from 11 pm onwards and when he calls you, he first begins by telling you those good words about academics then after he changes," said one of the students.
A boda-boda cyclist in Soroti city told journalists that Adunya cornered him one night when he rode with him to his house. The cyclist, whose name has been withheld to protect his family, says that the renowned academician lured him inside his house around midnight and attempted to sexually assault him.
