PETALING JAYA:
A teacher allegedly attacked by a hatchet-wielding student at a private school in Kuching on Wednesday has been discharged from hospital.

Tunku Putra-HELP School praised the teacher and the students for their response to the alleged attacker.

“TPH extends its heartfelt appreciation to our teacher involved in the incident, for her courage and composure during the incident, and to the students who responded swiftly to help their teacher and classmates,” it said in a statement this evening.

The school also said it has provided counselling to a number of students following the incident.

It said the school leadership and board of governors would continue to review its safety protocols with the authorities to further strengthen campus security.

“Our immediate priority is to provide the necessary care and support to students and staff directly affected by the incident.

“Enhanced security measures, including the presence of three ancillary police officers at the school compound and appropriate safety checks upon entry, remain in place until the end of the school year,” it said.

The school also urged the public to stop circulating CCTV footage and photographs involving its students and to respect the privacy of the families affected.

Earlier today, acting Sarawak police chief Saifullizan Ishak said police had recorded statements from 24 people in their investigation into the incident.

Saifullizan said the suspect was still receiving treatment in hospital, and police would proceed with the investigation with due consideration for the teenager’s health as well as the advice and assessment of medical officers.

The 16-year-old student was arrested following the incident which he allegedly livestreamed on social media. He was also reportedly carrying firecrackers.

The case is being investigated for voluntarily causing hurt with dangerous weapons and for handling explosives. - FMT
