HISD middle school teacher accused of having improper relationship with student
HOUSTON - Harris County court documents reveal details about a Houston Independent School District teacher who is accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student.
Abdurahman Milani, 27, has a warrant out for Improper Relationship with a Student for intentionally sending sexually explicit material to two students at Marshall Middle School. A warrant was also issued for sexual assault of a child and indecency with child sexual contact.
In May, officials were made aware of Milani after the HISD Professional Standards Department provided eight screenshots of Instagram messages from Milani to a student requesting sexual acts for extra credit.

One young girl, 14-years-old, shared that she and Milani shared sexually explicit photos of each other. She said she only sent the photos because Milani repeatedly asked her to and she began to be uncomfortable around him at school because he would tell her she "needed to do a trick for him."
The photos would range from Milani with no shirt on to his lower body showing his genitals either clothed or naked, documents say.

Another young girl, 14, confessed to the first girl that she and Milani performed sexual acts on campus such as oral sex and he would touch other parts of her body, court records state. In one instance the girl allegedly said, "I like him. I want to do bad stuff with him."
According to court documents, there were other times she was in Milani’s classroom and he would touch her. One day he tried touching her under her clothing but she told him "No", and he responded, "Come on."
Milani was a mathematics teacher at the middle school.
