MULTAN – An eight-year-old boy was beaten to death by a cleric for not memorising his lesson at a seminary in Vehari District on Sunday.
According to the reports, the cleric used a wire to lash the young boy. The physicians confirmed the torture marks that lead to the boy’s death.
Police took the action and held the religious teacher after receiving the complaint. A case has yet to be registered against the accused.
This is not the first time for such an incident to happen as many of the teachers found involved in torturing students.
Earlier in August 2020, two clerics in Karachi were arrested after a video showed them torturing a minor female student.
