The Langkawi District Police Chief, Assistant Commissioner Shariman Ashari said, the incident happened yesterday and a report was lodged by the victim today.

Preliminary investigation found that the incident happened at about 9.00 am yesterday in a class at that school.

“The cause of the incident was due to misunderstanding between the students involved and the video was recorded by a student from that class.
