Teens ordered to do community service for slapping, throwing slippers at student
The Batu Pahat magistrates’ court orders the two 13-year-olds to complete 90 hours of community service within six months.
Two Form 1 students have been sentenced by the Batu Pahat magistrates' court to 90 hours of community service for causing hurt to a male student. The incident occurred at a secondary school in Johor on April 6 when the boys threw slippers at the victim and slapped his head, leaving him with head injuries. One of the teens claimed trial, while the other pleaded guilty.
The court has ordered the teens' parents to maintain a three-year good behaviour bond with a RM1,000 surety each, along with a daily curfew between 10pm and 6am. They are required to report to authorities every two months during the bond period. The charge under Section 323 of the Penal Code, along with Section 34, carries a maximum penalty of one year in prison, a fine of up to RM2,000, or both.
