The police in Cape Coast have arrested the Adisadel College student who was caught on film choking his classmate. The arrest happened after a distressing video showed one student aggressively attacking another in a hostel.
After being apprehended, the student was charged with causing hurt and assault and released to the school’s Headmaster to appear in court on Friday.
The authorities are moving quickly to handle the issue and hold the culprit responsible.
After first being suspended, the victim has been returned to school. The school is taking precautions to guarantee his safety and rehabilitation.
He is presently having medical care, and the school has appointed a psychologist to offer him with the necessary assistance and counselling to help him recover from his trauma.
Parents, students, and the general public have expressed broad worry and indignation in response to the occurrence. The video revealing the attack shocked viewers and prompted concerns about students’ safety and well-being in educational institutions.
The school has taken serious actions to address the event in response to it. All pupils engaged in the event, including the culprit, were suspended until an inquiry was conducted.
The incident occurred on June 30, according to school records, but both the offender and the victim first kept it secret from authorities.
The management of the school has stated its commitment to providing a secure learning environment for all students and to taking strong action against any type of violence or misbehaviour.
The school and the proper authorities are collaborating to ensure that the victim receives the necessary help and that the offender confronts the appropriate legal ramifications for his conduct.
