VideoGang filmed subjecting schoolgirl to violent slap attack for 'wearing the wrong trousers'
Pupil attacked in Zhejiang province because she did not have on the correct school uniform
Five pupils who subjected a schoolgirl to a savage attack in which she was repeatedly slapped around the face for wearing the wrong school uniform have been punished after video of the assault surfaced on Chinese social media.
In the minute-long video the victim leans against a wall while she is struck more than 10 times by several pupils in turn.
“Should I record you guys?” the girl holding the camera is heard saying, while chuckling at the start of the video. A boy tells her to film the proceedings.
The victim remains quiet throughout most of the ordeal and refuses to fight back.
“You hit her too hard, change to another side,” the girl filming can be heard saying on the footage. The pupil hitting the girl then slaps the other side of her face.
Zheng Chaolong, the deputy principal of Jiangshan Second Middle School, in Zhejiang province, eastern China, told the China News Service that the school had investigated the case and ordered the pupils to apologise.
