Hafiz hunain bilal was physically tortured by his teacher named Kamran Hashmi because he didn’t learn his lesson at school. The teacher struck the innocent child's head with his knuckles and then banged his head against the wall. That inhumane being even kicked the poor soul.

The other students in Hunain’s class tried to intervene but by then it was too late
Hunain’s friends tried to stop the teacher when it got out of control but by that time they could get ahold of the teacher, he was out of breath.The teacher brutally slapped him more than once across the face and when he fell on the floor

the teacher claimed that Hanan(the victim) was only acting and that in actual he was okay. He screamed, cried for help and told the teacher to leave him alone as he couldn’t breathe. The teacher then dragged him to the principals office when he was on his last breath and died

You left us too soon, I can’t imagine another day without you. My heart aches knowing that he was brutally murdered and yet no one took any action. He deserves all the justice in the world. Twitter do your thing. pic.twitter.com/lvQ4ZPT0Zp

I am sickened and gutted to read this thread. A 17-year old student was beaten to death by his teacher in a private school. In the broad daylight; in front of the kid's classmates. Why? Because he'd not done the homework.
What's there to say about this rotten, violent system? https://t.co/WiWFnQrGhT

The Minister of Education for Punjab, Dr. Murad Raas, has taken note about this incident
He has apparently launched an investigation and will be filing charges against the accused.

People are calling into question the practice of corporal punishment in schools in Pakistan and want this to stop before more students are beaten to death like Hunain
Prayers for your family in this difficult time. May Allah ease the unbearable pain. This culture of 'beating' as a form of punishment is so inhumane. It needs to change. Systems of teaching need to be reviewed. Beating students should not be aloud. Simple as.

only solution is that students should be encourage to resist corporal punishment and their colleagues should immediately report.principles should also be booked in FIR for failing to keep check.

Cruelty increases when powerful aren't punished but innocents Are. Today this child is abused, Tomorrow it will be cruel to another child again. I have 2 say with regret that I live in this oppressive system. There is no HUMANITY left in our society#JusticeForHunain#DefenceDay pic.twitter.com/z78gGfVxEK

We must honor our teacher But teachers who are mentally ill. Such people should punish the government severely.Such people take advantage of their positions. No such cruelty is acceptable.
Give this child justice & punish the cruel teacher severely.#JusticeForHunain pic.twitter.com/T930FCCHm8— Sir Afridi Fan (@SirAfridiFan1) September 6, 2019
Corporal punishment in schools is a real problem in this country. Some teachers feel as though their position as a teacher gives them the power to do whatever they want with their students. This kind of abuse of power is exactly what led to birth of campaigns like #MeToo and #TimesUp.
Teachers are meant to be secondary parents, mentors, our role models and people who help us grow. When we put them on the pedestal of ustaad, we expect that they live up to that honor. But the culture of schools and teachers has become appalling. Beating is a norm in many schools and any teacher who beats their students has absolutely no right to call themselves a teacher. Schools need to have a very strict no-tolerance policy for abuse and the Government needs to take note and protect the children of this nation. As someone who hopes to one day join the teaching profession, I am deeply saddened and ashamed at the kind of people who are like this “teacher” was.
According to latest updates, the teacher has been arrested and charges have been filed against him.
Can’t even imagine how ruthless someone, much less a teacher, must be to have beaten to death one of their students. We extend our deepest condolences to the family of Hafiz Hunain Bilal. Rest in peace, dear Hunain.
