Pupil is 'bruised from teacher's repeated slapping'
Sandakan: A Primary Five pupil claims he suffered hearing problems and bruises after his teacher repeatedly slapped him at Sekolah Kebangsaan Sungai Kayu, at Mile 7, Tuesday.
Mohd Irfan Ibrahim, 11, who was accompanied by his parents, lodged a report at the police station, Wednesday.
Mohd Irfan said the classroom was noisy when the teacher called him to the front of the class.
The teacher suddenly slapped both his cheeks repeatedly and only stopped when another teacher passed by and told him so, he further claimed.
The boy's mother, Masdiah Diong, 44, only found out the bruises on her son's face after being told by Mohd Irfan's younger brother who was in the same school.
A check with the doctor found that Mohd Irfan suffered some injury that affected the boy's hearing in the left ear.
Other parents whose children go to school there claimed the teacher, a disciplinary teacher, had previously took disciplinary matters drastically.
Several boys and girls were allegedly ordered to take off their clothes before being told to go under the sun.

Shame on you "disciplinary teacher"... a teacher should provide a risk-free learning environment instead of instilling fear among the students.
