Video: 5-year-old boy hospitalised after 12-minute thrashing by class monitor

A five-year-old boy was allegedly beaten by his class monitor non-stop for nearly 12 minutes in their teacher's absence at a private school in Lucknow. The thrashing left him with facial injuries that required hospitalisation, according to his parents. A 47-second CCTV clip showed the class monitor beating three students one after the other after her teacher stepped outside the classroom. The school administration said that the young girl has been expelled following the incident. A police probe has also been initiated on the basis of a complaint lodged by the injured child's father.
