Aligarh, 12 Dec (HS): A class 12 student from a senior secondary school was beaten up by other inmates of a dormitory on a university campus here on Monday evening for allegedly uttering inappropriate comments about Prophet Mohammad and posting them on the internet.
The school announced that the 18-year-old youth from the Bijnor area had been suspended and that an investigation into his “comments” had been launched. The pupil will be suspended until the investigation was completed, according to school officials.
According to school sources, the pupils were debating the Israel-Hamas war on Monday evening when the conversation turned to the Prophet and the 18-year-old lad made a few unpleasant remarks. “Protesting students have called for his expulsion and the filing of a First Information Report (FIR).
“However, they have yet to file a written complaint,” stated a school administration official. He said that the student was beaten up by hostel inmates after being locked inside a room on Sunday evening.
“They made him delete his offensive post. When our security guards intervened, the youngster was running towards the proctor’s office. His parents were notified, and he was taken with them late last night,” the official added. The boy’s parents have also not filed a written complaint, according to the official.
