Telangana: Student clicks photo of teacher dozing off in class, cops beat him black and blue

Hyderabad: In a shocking incident, the Telangana Police has allegedly thrashed a student, who had taken a photo of a teacher sleeping in class and sent it to the education department.

The Class 10 student was tied up to a volleyball post at Zilla Parishad High School, Midjil, Mahbubnagar on Saturday and then beaten up by two policemen with sticks.

The boy had reportedly clicked the picture of his Math teacher snoozing in class on Thursday and sent it to the District Education Officer on WhatsApp.

As a result, K Ramulu was suspended. The incident probably infuriated other teachers in the school, reported NDTV.

A group of teachers called police on Saturday to 'teach him a lesson'.

The student claims that he was sitting with friends when he was caught and tied to a post in the school ground, with teachers watching.

He has bruises all over his body.

Quashing the student's claim, the police say he had been caught consuming alcohol within school premises.
