Court quashes case booked against PET, headmaster and school correspondent under IPC
Lamenting that no specific law had been enacted in the country so far to prohibit and eradicate corporal punishment despite it being a cruel practice, the Madras High Court quashed a criminal case booked against a physical education trainer, a headmaster and a school correspondent of a government-aided school for having allegedly caused the death of a student by making him do ‘duck waddling’ because he came late to school on January 17, 2018.
