While no one likes to see their personal belongings being damaged by other people, it’s no excuse to take out one’s anger and frustration by assaulting the person responsible for the damage.
A teen was left bleeding and battered after he was beaten by three other teenagers over a handphone which his younger sibling had damaged.

After being attacked, the victim fell into a drain and had to have 40 stitches to his head as a result of the assault.
“Several weeks ago, the victim’s younger sibling had accidentally damaged a brand new mobile phone belonging to one of the suspects.
On the day of the incident, the suspects confronted the victim and demanded that he gave them a new handphone. When he was unable to, they proceeded to beat him before he fell into a nearby drain.

“The victim knew all of his attackers and police nabbed the three suspects on Saturday (Jul 20) based on information given and a police report lodged by the victim,” he said.
Shahril added the suspects were secondary school students and will be remanded until today.
The case is now being investigated under Section 325 of the Penal Code for causing grievous hurt, which is punishable with up to seven years’ imprisonment and a fine.
