IT is highly unusual to find a student lying unconscious outside a school, so it would be human nature for all sorts of allegations to emerge in such an instance.
These allegations could include a claim that the student in question was rendered unconscious due to an attack.
Recently, a Form Three student was found unconscious outside a school in Tebobon, Sabah and a claim has gone viral that they were in this state because they were attacked.
Is this true?
VERDICT:
FALSE
This claim was denied by Kota Kinabalu OCPD Asst Comm Kasim Muda, who said that a police report has been lodged by a teacher at the school stating that the allegation of violence in a viral video is actually untrue.
He said that no injuries were found when the student was checked by the teacher at about 6.30am on Wednesday (June 26).
"We then received a report lodged by the teacher stating that the claim in a viral video that the student was beaten or involved in a fight is untrue," said ACP Kasim.
ACP Kasim then urged the public to not re-upload or share the video or any unverified statements that could cause fear
