A New Hampshire teacher accused of sexually assaulting a former middle school student is being held without bail in Massachusetts.

Primo “Howie” Leung, of Concord, was arraigned Wednesday in Newton District Court. He’s charged with two counts of aggravated rape of a child; one count of indecent assault and battery on a child under the age of 14; and one count of indecent assault and battery on a person over the age of 14. His lawyer entered a not guilty plea on Leung’s behalf.

The Concord Monitor reports Leung’s alleged victim, now 17, said she was sexually assaulted by Leung several years on school property and at a summer program in Massachusetts.

It reports police found a letter Leung wrote to the student when she was 14 saying he loved her.
