Students who bullied teacher to be charged with disorderly conduct

The police have proposed charging three secondary school students with disorderly conduct and limiting personal freedom in one of the worst cases of aggression at school in recent years. The case involved three students who for months humiliated and bullied their teacher in front of the whole class, recording the incidents on camera. The woman later had a nervous breakdown and died in hospital. The police said an investigation had not found any evidence that the students were directly responsible for her death. The teacher was said to be seriously ill. Two of the students were expelled from the school and the headmaster was sacked for not addressing the issue.
