## Threw whiteboard duster at student

According to [Harian Metro](https://www.hmetro.com.my/mutakhir/2026/07/1378172/guru-wanita-didakwa-baling-pemadam-papan-putih-hingga-mata-murid-lebam), the offence was allegedly committed at a primary school in Tongkang Pecah at around 9am on Apr 1.

A medical examination later confirmed the bruise she sustained was consistent with Fakhriah's alleged throwing of the object.

The prosecution was led by Deputy Public Prosecutor Firdaus Ruslan, while Fakhriah was represented by Normaahani Rais from the National Legal Aid Foundation.
