Class 7 Boy Attacks Teacher Over Cheating Allegation In Exam Hall News24 –

A 12-year-old boy, a student of class 7, allegedly assaulted his school teacher after he was caught cheating in Hyderabad Begumpet on Wednesday, said officials.

“Teacher Venugopal was assaulted with a rod used for roping the bell. He sustained a minor injury and is out of danger. We have registered an assault case,” said Begumpet inspector B. Prasada Rao, as quoted by Times of India.

Police said on the first day of the exam, when the boy was found cheating, the teacher separated the students, and the exam was conducted successfully. But as the exam was over, the student, enraged over the incident, assaulted him. However, the family members of the boy apologised for his act. Following the apology, the teacher, who did not want to ruin the student’s career, withdrew his complaint.

The police inspector B. Prasada Rao said that a notice was issued to the family members of the boy since the offender is a juvenile. “After the investigation, he will be produced before the juvenile justice board,” as quoted by Mint.
In a separate incident, a couple who were sitting on a bike facing each other was allegedly assaulted by a group of five men in Bengaluru. The incident was recorded in a CCTV camera fitted close to the spot. Further investigation is underway.
