Viral video: Police will book bullying students

The boys uncle pressed charges against the bullies

PESHAWAR: After a student was bullied, with a video of the incident going viral, the uncle of the boy has filed an application with the police, urging them to register an FIR against those responsible. The application, submitted to the East Cantonment Police Station by Muneeb — an uncle of the harassed student Furqan, stated that his nephew was heading to the Edwards College when some students caught him and bullied him. The incident Muneeb argued, had left the Railways Colony resident deeply disturbed, so much so that he had refused to return to the college for his studies. Police confirmed that they had received the application and that a first information report will be registered based on the complaint.
