(Malaysiakini) The police have taken statements from 23 male students from a school in Section 25, Shah Alam, for allegedly being involved in a fight yesterday at their school.
According to Bernama, Shah Alam police chief ACP Zahedi Ayob said the fight between Form Four and Form Five students were stopped by teachers before they were brought to a counselling room while waiting for the police.
The police took the students to the Section 15 Police Station where they were quizzed on the cause of the incident, he told reporters yesterday.
The students were allowed to go home after the police recorded their statements, he said, adding that the police would discuss with the school on a counselling session for them.
A mother of one of the students injured in a fracas that occurred last week, however, has accused the school authorities concerned of being non-chalant about the matter.
Kia Ooi Meng alleged that following an incident that happened on April 13 that saw her son suffer injuries after being assaulted by several other boys at the school, the school authorities had declined to take further action.
He said this, Kia told Malaysiakini, on the ground that a police report had already been lodged over the fight.
“(The principal) should have been more concerned, because the incident happened in his school. Up until today, the principal still does not want to know about what happened to my son,” she said.
Kia said her son suffered injuries to the head and other parts of his body after being hit by about eight students, at least one of whom used a chair in the assault.
“Now, my son does not want to go to school, although he has to because he will be taking his PMR exams this year,” she added.
She claimed further that there had been previous incidents of fights breaking out in the school.
When contacted, the school informed Malaysiakini the principal could not come to the telephone as he was occupied by other matters.
