SONG: A teacher of a secondary school here was assaulted after he reprimanded a 15-year-old student for riding a motorcycle to the school without a valid driving licence.
Song district police chief DSP Rowney Michael Jalak said at 11.50am on Friday, the 26-year-old teacher saw a student riding a motorcycle in the school compound.
“He then told the student to stop doing it. However, the Form 3 student got agitated and started to assault him,” Rowney said.
The victim who was smaller than the student was floored in the assault.
As a result of the assault, the teacher suffered bruises on his lips and cuts on his head and fingers.
Rowney said the incident was witnessed by another teacher at the school.
