The teen that is at the centre of a hullabaloo in which he is accused of assaulting the head teacher of the No 5 Primary School has been charged with unlawful wounding.
The teen who lives at No. 9 village, West Coast Berbice and attends the No. 8 Secondary School, is accused of wounding Gangadai Isaacs, the acting Head Teacher of No.5 Primary School, on Saturday December 1 at No. 9 village, West Coast Berbice.
Following a confrontation between the parties involved at the Fort Wellington Police Station, the teen was charged. He failed to appear in court and a summons has been issued for him to appear on December 12, which is the next court date.
Isaacs was reportedly dealt several cuffs to the face by the teen in the presence of her 11-year-old daughter, five-year-old niece and three-year-old son, and hit several times about her body.
The woman says she is still in tremendous pain about her body. She said that she is experiencing pains in her chest and lower body. She has a swollen lip and face.
The woman had stated that around 16:30 hrs on the day in question she, her two children and niece were on their way to her mother’s residence when they were confronted by the teen who barged into them. He then kissed her and as she tried to retaliate, he began raining blows on her.
The teen is said to be a known troublemaker.
The Ministry of Education has condemned the incident and assured that the matter is being investigated and the findings of the said investigation will be made available upon its conclusion.
