Teenager pleads guilty to assaulting teacher
by AKMAR ANNUAR A 14-YEAR-OLD student pleaded guilty at the Magistrates' Court on July 30 to a charge of assaulting his teacher at a secondary school earlier this week. The incident, which occurred on July 28, involved the teenager — currently in a transition class — punching his teacher in the face following a disciplinary reprimand. The case has drawn public attention after a 38-second video of the altercation was widely circulated on social media. Magistrate Fatin Dayana Jalil postponed sentencing to Sept 11 to allow time for the Social Welfare Department (JKM) to prepare a character report. The boy was accompanied by both his parents during the closed-door proceedings. His mother appeared visibly distressed as they entered the courtroom. According to the charge, the student intentionally caused injury to the teacher at approximately 4.48pm on the school premises. The charge was framed under Section 323 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum penalty of one year's imprisonment, a fine of up to RM2,000, or both, upon conviction. Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP) Muhammad Syafiq Mohd Zulbahrin proposed bail be set at RM5,000, citing the seriousness of the offence and its widespread attention online. 'The case has gone viral and involves an assault on a teacher during school hours,' he said. However, defence counsel S Priyalatha requested a lower bail, stressing that the teenager is still in school and falls under the category of a young offender. 'My client is 14 years old, still in school and he is a juvenile under the law. I request a lower bail amount so as not to burden the family,' she told reporters outside the courtroom. The court subsequently allowed bail at RM1,000 with one surety. Kajang District Police Chief Assistant Commissioner Naazron Abdul Yusof confirmed the arrest, saying that the altercation occurred after the teacher reprimanded the student for skipping physical education class. The teacher, a 29-year-old man, lodged a police report at 7.15pm the same day. Initial investigations revealed that the student was expected to be on the school field during the class session but was absent, prompting the confrontation.
