Form Two student arrested for punching, threatening teacher
KUALA LUMPUR: A 14-year-old student has been arrested for allegedly punching and threatening a teacher at a secondary school in Kajang. Kajang police chief Assistant Commissioner Naazron Abd Yusof said the male student was arrested yesterday following a report lodged by a 29-year-old teacher. According to the police report filed on Monday, the teacher claimed he had been punched and threatened by the student on school grounds. "Preliminary investigations showed that the incident stemmed from the student skipping his physical education class, during which he was supposed to be on the field. "The teacher reprimanded him, which led to the student becoming dissatisfied and eventually getting into a fight with the complainant. "The student then punched the teacher in the face and issued threats in the presence of several teachers and students," Naazron said in a statement yesterday. He added that the case is being investigated under Sections 323 and 506 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing hurt and criminal intimidation. If convicted under Section 323, the offender may face up to one year in prison, a fine not exceeding RM2,000, or both. For Section 506, the penalty includes up to two years' imprisonment, a fine, or both. Naazron said the student has been remanded for two days and is expected to be charged in the magistrate's court today. Anyone with information regarding the incident is urged to contact Investigating Officer Inspector Mohd Amirul Abd Wahab at 013-549 5236 to assist with the investigation. "The police also advise school students to comply with school regulations and refrain from actions that could jeopardise their future."
