The teenager was stripped partially and subjected to spitting and a methodical beating by his fellow students, all purportedly under the directive of the cleric.
The incident was captured on camera, and the footage eventually reached the victim's family, prompting them to swiftly file a complaint with the local police. A case was registered against the cleric, and he was charged under the Minor Students Protection Act.
The minors involved in the assault subsequently received counseling, while legal proceedings against the cleric are ongoing
