A TEACHER was yesterday accused of sexually assaulting a girl when he told her that her trouser zipper was down in class. The 11-year-old burst into tears when she described the incident to her headteacher at a County Durham primary school. Supply teacher Tony Tsang, 44, a father of two daughters, was suspended without prejudice protesting his innocence, a jury was told. He told a police Child Protection Unit officer that he pointed at the zipper with his right index finger, but did not touch the girl. He said his finger was six inches away from her and she brushed it away, "pulling up her zipper in embarassment". Shaun Dryden, prosecuting, told Teesside Crown Court yesterday: "She said that his hand went inside her trousers and that he touched her pants." The allegation emerged when a teaching assistant at the school tried to quieten a group of girls in class by asking: "Have you anything to share with me?" The woman said three girls got up and approached her at the front, and one of them said that she wanted to say something to her in private. The assistant added: "I sent the other two children back to their seats. "The girl said she needed to tell me something that had happened before Christmas, that Mr Tsang had touched her. Her voice was faltering and she was obviously showing signs of distress.
