Police are still investigating the incident where it is alleged that a 14-year-old student was assaulted by another student at a prominent school in Suva.

Police say they have recorded the statement of the witnesses and were expected to question the suspect yesterday.

The incident took place at the school last Wednesday where it is alleged that another student cracked the boy’s teeth and seriously injured his tongue.

The matter was reported to the Totogo Police Station.

Meanwhile, Minister for Education Rosy Akbar says there was no case of any student who was brutally assaulted by classmates.

When questioned by Fijivillage, Akbar says they have a report where a child suffered injuries at school and it is currently being investigated by police.
