A 17-year-old student in Uthai Thani violently assaulted his female teacher, punching and kicking her repeatedly, after failing to achieve a perfect score on a mid-term mathematics exam.
The teacher sustained severe injuries, including bruises and broken ribs, prompting her to seek medical treatment and file a police complaint against the student.
The assault, captured on CCTV footage that went viral, occurred when the student became enraged after the teacher explained his score of 18/20 was due to not showing calculation methods.
The student's parents have since withdrawn him from the school, and police are investigating the incident, noting the student reportedly had a history of violent behavior.
