KARACHI: In a case of corporal punishment in a Korangi 1½ madressah, a minor orphan child was beaten by a seminary teacher with a thorny stick only for not memorising his lessons, said Korangi-SSP Tauheed Rehman Memon on August 22.

The seven-year-old boy, Maaz, received injuries on different parts of his body and serious injuries on his hands and arms. The teacher went missing after the incident.
