He said the incident took place in February but only gained attention recently after going viral on social media. He said the students involved were summoned by Majlis Amanah Rakyat (Mara) following an investigation. 'Mara has recorded statements from all parties, and the students involved have since apologised. They are continuing their skills courses and undergoing plant training, and the case is considered closed. 'The trainee who was allegedly bullied did not sustain any injuries,' Rahmad told reporters here today. Mara chairman Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki had said in a Facebook post yesterday that there would be no compromise for anyone involved in bullying of any kind, whether physical or psychological, at any Mara educational institution. 'The Mara management at all levels and within its educational institutions fully understands my stance. The strictest action will be taken if there is evidence of misconduct or criminal bullying,' he said. The media reported that a young man had uploaded a two-minute video featuring a disabled student with learning difficulties who claimed he had been bullied at the Durian Tunggal GiatMara in Melaka. The young man had expressed shock after meeting the student at a badminton court and hearing about the incident firsthand.
