Viral school fight video shows June incident classified NFA

A viral video showing a fight between students and adults outside a school in Bentong has resurfaced on Facebook, depicting an incident that occurred in June. Police have classified the case as no further action (NFA) following the decision of the complainant to withdraw the report and not pursue the case. Acting Bentong police chief Deputy Superintendent Azmi Mahmod stated that the incident occurred on June 16, after the victim's father lodged a police report alleging that his son had been assaulted and threatened by two youths.

Two suspects, aged 15 and 16, were arrested and remanded for two days before being released on police bail on June 18. They were charged under Section 323 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing hurt and Section 506 for criminal intimidation. The investigation was completed and the case was classified as NFA on July 15, taking into account developments in the investigation.

Police emphasized that they take incidents involving the safety and welfare of school students seriously and urged the public not to spread unverified information or make statements about the video that could cause confusion.
