11-Year-old Godfred Gyamfi who is a class 4 pupil of Sarah Donkor preparatory School at Goka in the Jaman North district has been beaten severely by his Guardian for failure to keep his school bag indoors.

Speaking to the boy who was compelled to go to school with a lot of wounds at his back and other parts of his body due to how he was mercilessly flogged by his Guardian, one Mr Kwaku Carpenter, he stated that his school bag was seen outside which led to his punishment after he was sent by one of his younger brothers.

 But speaking to Mr Kwaku Carpenter, he insisted that, it is the victim who refused to obey his instructions to keep his school bag in the room hence leaving the bag which contains his books outside for it to be destroyed by rainfall.

 Mr Kwaku carpenter added that his ward has been disregarding any instructions issued to him concerning how to keep his school equipment safe which to him is a high sense of disrespect. He believes the only way to get the boy to obey his instruction was through flogging.

Meanwhile, Soiree News engagement with the headmaster for Sarah Donkor preparatory School, Mr Enock Afram who realized a flow of blood in the uniform of his class four pupil stated that he reported the case to Goka police station which was later referred to Berekum DOVVSU headquarters.

He said, the culprit was arrested but has been released without any reason from the Berekum DOVVSU department.

Efforts to get reactions from the Berekum DOVVSU proved futile as they have failed to speak to the media on the issue.

Meanwhile, the 11year old victim is now receiving treatment at Goka clinic.
