Teacher Jailed For Flogging A Pupil (See)
A South African school teacher, Philippine Rakosa, has been sentenced to
one year imprisonment by a magistrate court in Alexandra, Johannesburg,
for caning a grade two pupil.
Pretoria said that
the teacher was jailed on Wednesday for hitting an eight year pupil
with a hosepipe for failing a class test. The incident was said to have
occurred on Feb. 8, 2014, at Gordon`s Primary School in Alexandra, north
of Johannesburg.
According to the publication, the Magistrate, Gideon Suhnetler, was quoted as saying that it was time teachers realized that corporal punishment was outlawed in South Africa. The magistrate exercised leniency and jailed the convict for one year because she was the sole breadwinner in her family and had two children. The teacher`s husband, the publication also said, was unemployed.
