However, the teacher told reporters that he had not hit the student. "Nabeel broke his leg while playing with other boys in the school ground," he added.

In August this year,  a four-year-old child suffered temporary hearing loss after his teacher beat him black and blue in the Shujabad sub-district of Multan.


Asim, the father of the child, told The Express Tribune that his son studied at a school supported by the Pakistan Education Foundation.  The teacher beat his son for making noise in the classroom in his absence.
