A magistrates' court in Alexandra, Johannesburg,
South Africa, has sentenced a school teacher,
Philippine Rakosa, to one year imprisonment for
caning a grade two pupil.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that the
Sowetan newspaper on Friday in Pretoria said that
the teacher was jailed on Wednesday for hitting an
eight-year-old pupil with a hosepipe for failing a
class test.
The paper said the incident occurred on February 8,
2014, at Gordon`s Primary School in Alexandra,
north of Johannesburg.
The publication quoted the Magistrate, Gideon
Suhnetler, as saying that it was time teachers
realised that corporal punishment was outlawed in
South Africa.
It said that a medical doctor testified that the child
suffered hand sepsis, a skin infection that changed
the wound to various colours.
"Her hand no longer works properly and there are
fears it might not recover entirely," the doctor said.
The paper also said that the pupil testified via video
feed that the teacher assaulted her, claiming that
she had copied from another pupil.
According to the paper, the pupil`s mother told the
court that the teacher offered her bribe to close the
case.
The teacher, according to the Sowetan, said she
paid the money after being told to do so by her
headmaster.
Rakosa said the headmaster wanted the matter
settled before the media got the information.
The magistrate, however, said that it was impossible
for an adult like the teacher to accept a liability if
she had not committed the offence.
He said the teacher`s testimony was not
trustworthy and was aimed at defending herself.
The paper quoted the prosecutor, Jackie Letsoalo,
as requesting the court to jail the teacher for five
years.
The magistrate exercised leniency and jailed her for
one year because she was the sole breadwinner in
her family and had two children.
The teacher`s husband, the publication also said,
was unemployed.
The Sowetan said that while there were many cases
in the country, this was the first time a teacher had
been sentenced to prison.
