.......and few coaches as well
(Srilankamirror) – The rugby coach of Royal College, Colombo is accused of sexually abusing the children under him, Neth FM reports.
In a letter to the director of school sports, parents of Royal College’s rugby playes allege the coach, Bilal Yusuf, had abused a child during a three-day workshop in April.
That child victim, in turn, got favoured and was given the opportunity to play in every game during the last season, says the letter.
Also, the coach stands accused of turning the children to alcohol consumption after every game at parties at five-star hotels.
Following a game against S. Thomas’ Colleg, Mt. Lavinia, he had forced the children to dance half naked.
The parents’ letter also accuses him of buying referees and collecting money from the children for the purpose.
The coach was sacked from two schools previously on sexual abuse charges, and the parents request the director of school sports to take appropriate action against him.
