OFFICIAL REBUTTAL STATEMENT ON ALLEGED SEXUAL HARASSMENT AT TANSIAN UNIVERSITY
The Management of Tansian University wishes to categorically refute and condemn the false allegations of sexual harassment leveled against a priest associated with the University.
The University hereby states clearly that no incident of sexual harassment involving the said priest and any female student took place either within the University premises or outside the institution as alleged. The accusations are entirely unfounded, misleading, and capable of tarnishing the hard-earned reputation of both the priest and the University.
Indeed, there was a little crisis in the university last week, which has nothing to do with sexual harassment. The matter has been reported to the police and the perpetrators are being investigated.
Tansian University is a faith-based institution founded on strong moral, ethical, and spiritual values. The University Management maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy towards all forms of misconduct, including sexual harassment, intimidation, or abuse of students and staff.
The Management therefore assures students, parents, guardians, and the general public that the University does not condone, support, or consolidate any act capable of undermining the dignity and safety of members of the academic community.
We urge the public to disregard the malicious allegations and and the perpetrators to refrain from spreading false, malicious and unverified information capable of causing unnecessary panic and reputational damage.
