Hyderabad: A lady school teacher of a private school allegedly slapped a 10th standard student in Jagadgirigutta area here following which she was booked, police said today.

Reports in a section of media said the 15-year-old boy was allegedly hit on his head by a wooden duster by his teacher Rama Devi on Tuesday, resulting in head injuries after which he was shifted to a hospital and operated upon.

But during course of investigation, it was found that the boy had a clot in his brain and he had been undergoing treatment for the same, police said.

Jagadgirigutta Police Station Inspector P Srinivas said that following a complaint by the boy's father, a case was registered under relevant sections of IPC and Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act against the teacher and she was questioned.

"During probe, it was revealed that she had only slapped him after the boy's mother had told her that he had not been attending classes regularly," the Inspector said, brushing aside the allegations that the teacher had hit the boy after he did not pay fine for not attending classes.
