Rajamangala University of Technology Suvarnabhumi ( RMUTSB ) has expelled four students for their alleged involvement in a hazing assault on Thursday that left a first-year engineering student seriously injured, a Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research, and Innovation ( MHESRI ) official said on Monday.
Suchada Thaensap, minister to the Caretaker Higher Education, Science, Research, and Innovation Minister, said eight individuals were accused of orchestrating the bullying, which was captured in CCTV footage on school. As the government continues its investigation into the other four’s jobs in the assault, four have already been sent down.
According to the secretary, the individuals under investigation are also likely to experience the same death.
RMUTSB reported actively supporting the government with the investigation, which is scheduled to close in the next two weeks.
According to reports, the 20-year-old freshman allegedly began military-style training, which included physical abuse and brutal punishments like being torched dressed.
The student and his parents traveled to the school because they could not bear the maltreatment. According to his mother, who was only identified as Wan, the kids requested that faculty members relocate the learner to a group in another tower to prevent the hazing seniors.
A group of about ten elders who taunted the pupil and kicked him constantly until he fell to the ground, to the horror of his relatives, confronted the family after they had spoken with the team.
Ms. Wan claimed that her father, who tried to protect their son, even assaulted her while pushing her away.
Ms Suchada said on Monday, the target and his kids, accompanied by virtual advocate Guntouch Pongpaiboonwet, known as Gun Jom Phalang, went to the government to house a formal complaint about the event.
Mr. Guntouch reported to the government that some of the hazing activities, some of which took position in forests, may have been accompanied by university-acquired students as well as former students.
The advocate demanded an investigation to find out why some students appear to be giving the impression that a lot of hazing promotes student unity.
Ms. Suchada also cautioned school management that it might be held accountable if abuse results from negligence.
Sanya Khamjing, RMUTSB deputy chairman, said an inner sensor was afoot and that the school had cooperated fully with the government.
He argued that just a small percentage of students engaged in any kind of intense abuse.
