Jakarta - Two teachers at Jakarta International School (JIS) are to stand trial on charges of sexually assaulting a six-year-old pupil, local media reported on Thursday.
The head of Jakarta prosecutor's office, Adi Toegarisman, said the case dossiers of a Canadian and an Indonesian had been completed on Wednesday.
The men, who were the school's vice-principal and a teaching assistant respectively, have denied any wrongdoing.
“We are now waiting for the next phase, the handover of evidence from the investigators before we proceed to trial,” Toegarisman was quoted as saying by the news website Liputan6.com.
The two teachers have been in police custody since July, while the police were investigating allegations against them from the pupil's parents.
They are charged with violations against the child protection law and could face up to 15 years in prison if convicted.
Five former janitors at the school are on trial in the child sexual assault scandal. - Sapa-dpa
