A violin professor at the Conservatorio Superior of Asturias in Oviedo, Spain, stands accused of touching a 20 year-old violin student during the academic years 2015 to 18.

When she protested, he is alleged to have hit her with his violin bow and made disobliging personal comments.

The prosecutor is demanding his dismissal from the Conservatorio and five years jail.

The teacher is said to be Russian.
