[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Police have launched an investigation after allegations surfaced that a middle school athlete in Jeonnam suffered from school violence for several months.


According to the Jeonnam Police Agency on the 8th, the family of A, a second-year student at a middle school in Jeonnam, filed a petition with the education office demanding a thorough investigation and strict punishment, claiming that A was subjected to violence and extortion by a classmate.


According to A, from January to early March of this year, while active as a member of the sports team, he was assaulted by B, the team captain and a student in the same grade, at the dormitory and other places.


A stated that B repeatedly hit his and other team members' buttocks with a vacuum cleaner stick during training due to repeated mistakes, and that other students witnessed this.


In addition, A claimed that B demanded money twice, which he lent but never received back, and that he also heard slander about his parents.


The education office reportedly took measures immediately after receiving the report to prevent B from approaching A at school.
