SINGAPORE: The police are investigating a case of a student from Qihua Primary School being attacked by a boy repeatedly, after a video of the incident emerged online.
A report has also been lodged, said the police in response to CNA’s query on Monday (Sep 23).
The video, lasting about four minutes and circulating on WhatsApp and Telegram, shows a teenager in a black T-shirt and jeans hitting a smaller boy who is wearing the uniform of the school located in Woodlands.
The boy is pushed to a corner of a stairwell, where the teenager punches and kicks him and hurls him to the floor.
The teenager can be heard in the video ordering the boy to put his hands behind his back, before proceeding to punch him in the stomach. The boy is also taken by the neck and thrown numerous times to the floor, where he continues to receive kicks and punches to his body.
On numerous occasions, the boy says “sorry, sorry I won’t do it again” while he is being taunted by the teenager and another person – possibly the one filming the incident.
At one point, the teenager asks the boy: “You want to fight? You sure?”
The boy, who is in tears by then, repeats that he is “sorry” and that he “will not do it again”.
It was unclear when this incident occurred.
CNA has contacted Qihua Primary School for more information on the incident.
