A shocking video clip has been circulating online of a group of students from Westwood Secondary School bullying one of their classmates.
In response to Stomp’s media queries, the school’s principal Mr Abdul Harris Sumardi confirmed that the incident happened on Feb 9 and involved the school’s students.
He said: “We have counselled the students involved and taken appropriate disciplinary measures. We are also working with their parents to help the students learn from the incident.”
The video, which was shared on Facebook on Thursday (Feb 15), has garnered over 100,000 views.
In the video, the boy who is recording the incident goads his other classmates into “teaching” one of their classmates a lesson.
He tells them in Malay to hurry up before their teacher comes back.
Two of the students start throwing chairs at a boy who is sitting at his table playing with his mobile phone.
One of the boys then walks up to him and starts punching and kicking him.
He then flips the boy’s chair, shoving him to the floor.
He continues to punch and stomp on the boy before the one filming tells him that it is “enough”.
