Tongue-cut boy: I want to go to my village

BY ALLISON LAI

KLANG: The eight-year-old boy who was forced to cut his own tongue in a bullying incident at a school, does not want to face his bullies again and wants to attend school elsewhere.

The boy’s mother, 28-year-old Siti Nurhuda Ibrahim said she and her husband, Alias Abdullah, 34, had thought of transferring their eldest son to another school several months ago when he complained that he was unhappy at school.

“At first, we thought that it was only some small conflicts with other schoolmates that is rather normal at school. So we sat on the matter.

“However, after this incident, we are really going to move him out,” she said at her home at Bukit Tinggi.

   KLANG: Five Year Three pupils are involved in the bullying of a schoolmate who was forced to cut the tip of his tongue at a school in Bukit Tinggi on Thursday.
   Klang Selatan OCPD Assistant Commissioner Azman Abdul Razak said the incident took place in a classroom when there were no teachers or other pupils around.
   “The victim, in a police report lodged by his mother, said he was told by the five nine-year-olds to cut his tongue if he did not want to be punched by them. Out of fear, he cut his tongue using a pair of scissors himself.

   The school informed his mother of the incident and they brought the boy to a hospital where he received outpatient treatment,” said Azman. Azman said the boy had previously complained of being bullied by several schoolmates.
