PASIR MAS: Many students at a secondary school here said they were not aware of a bullying incident involving a Form Three schoolmate until it was reported in the news.

They claimed it was the first such incident at the school.

One student, who wanted to be known only as Amin, 15, said the incident came as a surprise to students.

"The news shocked us. Some of us know the victim even though we are not in the same class. Some of us also know the suspects.

"We didn't expect this to happen at our school. We only found out about it when the story started spreading online."

Kelantan police chief Datuk Mohd Yusoff Mamat said police were still investigating the case.

"I cannot say whether the six suspects will be charged when their remand order ends on Aug 25.

"Police are awaiting instructions from the prosecutor's office."

It was reported on Wednesday that six Form Four students were detained for allegedly assaulting and bullying another student at a secondary school earlier this week.
