A 27-year-old Israeli teacher was arrested by Israel Police on Thursday following accusations of sexual assault made by his 17-year-old student.
The teacher, a resident of Jaffa, turned himself in after the student filed a complaint to a police station in central Israel. He was interrogated by officers before being detained.
Police will move to extend the man's arrest in a hearing at the Tel Aviv Magistrate's Court, set to take place on Friday.
The investigation is ongoing.
