Earlier, the media had reported that the son of a US Embassy staff was involved in a fight at the school on April 10 causing a 15-year-old boy to be given 38 stitches.

The victim, believed to be a Malaysian, was reportedly injured after he had fallen in the toilet. However, the victim's mother lodged a police report of the incident on April 10.

The American student is believed to have left Malaysia with his family members based on immigration records.
