Ustaz Breaks 9yo Boy’s Leg For Taking Too Long To Bring Back Quran

As students, we often expect our teachers to be patient and show us love and care as they are responsible for our future and wellbeing.

However, a 9-year-old boy from Terengganu recently suffered a broken leg after his teacher slammed him against a chair in a KAFA religious school for taking too long to retrieve the Quran as per his teacher’s instructions.

The horrific incident started when the boy, the class monitor, was asked to retrieve the Quran from the back of the class around 5pm on 6 July.

Unfortunately, the boy didn’t retrieve the Quran fast enough for the teacher’s liking, and the teacher carried the boy and threw him against a chair in anger.

According to Buletin TV3, the boy’s legs landed in a folded position.

His cries and complaints about the pain were ignored despite his inability to walk or move until 6pm that day. When his mother discovered what had happened, the boy’s parents quickly brought him to a private clinic and had an X-ray done.

They were shocked when the X-ray revealed that the tibia and fibula in their son’s right leg broke.

The case was then referred to Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah, Kuala Terengganu.

Asking for forgiveness

The parents then informed the school about the incident, which led to the teacher in question immediately visiting the victim’s home to ask for forgiveness and to beg them not to lodge a police report.

The school offered RM300 and lent the boy a wheelchair to resolve the matter.

Meanwhile, the teacher’s family reportedly came to the victim’s house to carry out an alternative traditional healing ritual on the boy.

Despite the teacher’s pleas, the boy’s parents are livid about the incident and have lodged a police report to take further action against the teacher.

According to Berita Harian, the case is being investigated under Section 325 of the Penal Code, as stated by Marang Police Chief Deputy Superintendent Mohd Zain Mat Dris.
