Hyderabad: A teacher of a private school here has
been booked after her alleged corporal punishment led to the death
of a 15-year-old student.
Police registered a case against Mobina, a teacher of Royal
Embassy High School in Madannapet area of the old city of
Hyderabad, for allegedly causing the death of Mohammed Ismail
Hussain, a class 10 student, an official said here Friday.
However, no arrest has been made so far. Police said the teacher
was booked under section 304-A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
A police officer said the case was being investigated.
The boy, a resident of Chandrayangutta neighbourhood, died
Thursday while undergoing treatment at a private hospital.
The student died nine days after the teacher made him do more than
300 sit-ups for allegedly quarrelling with a classmate.
The boy had developed high fever and allegedly died of brain
haemorrhage.
His family members said he was taken to four hospitals for
treatment since Sep 4 when he was punished by the teacher.
Police said they were waiting for the autopsy report to reach to
any conclusion on the cause of the death.
Angry over the boy's death, his relatives went on a rampage and
ransacked the school. They demanded action against the teacher.
The boy's family members alleged that the teacher made her do the
sit-ups in all the classes on three floors and this caused
humiliation and mental agony.
