Three secondary school students have been remanded for four days starting today after being involved in a fight in an incident at Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Kubang Kerian (3) Kota Bharu, Kelantan.

Kota Bharu district police chief Mohd Rosdi Daud said in the incident that happened at about 1.45pm, a 14-year-old victim complained of being beaten by three classmates.

"The victim’s mother then lodged a police report, and preliminary investigations found that the fight broke out because they were mocking each other while in class.

"The victim has received outpatient treatment at the Universiti Sains Malaysia Hospital in Kubang Kerian," he said in a statement to the media today.

Following that, the police arrested the three suspects aged between 14 and 15 years for further investigation.

He added that the case was being investigated under Sections 506 and 323 of the Penal Code for criminal intimidation and causing hurt respectively.
