Selangor police have initiated an investigation into a bullying incident at a Shah Alam secondary school, involving a 15-year-old student. The 17-year-old suspect, a schoolmate of the victim, was arrested and released on bail after being remanded. Police are probing the case under Sections 506 and 323 of the Penal Code, which deal with criminal intimidation and causing hurt voluntarily.
The investigation is ongoing, with statements and information being recorded. The incident reportedly began as a case of teasing between schoolmates. The 17-year-old suspect's injuries are not yet known as an official medical report is pending. Only one suspect has been arrested so far, and the investigation will be concluded before the case is handed over to the deputy public prosecutor's office.
The 15-year-old victim, Adryz Adrian, allegedly suffered head and ear injuries from the alleged bullying and assault. His mother, Nurhaswaty Zamani, revealed that her son had faced harassment from the same group of students since Form One. She only became aware of the most recent incident after her son informed her last Wednesday.
