School bullies hang boy by his neck

The South Australian government has been accused of abandoning a teenage boy who was hung from a pole by bullies, according to the Liberals.

In a violent incident, the 13-year-old boy was subjected to being hung from a pole by his neck on two separate occasions in one day, as stated by opposition Education spokesman David Pisoni.

Despite two months having passed since the attack at Para Hills High School, the boy’s mother has yet to see any accountability for the assailants, receive counseling for her son, or witness a thorough investigation, Mr. Pisoni commented in a statement released on Tuesday.

Mr. Pisoni described the Education department’s neglect in addressing the family’s concerns as a shocking reflection on Education Minister Jay Weatherill’s performance.

“He must cease burying this disturbing issue and promptly respond to the needs of the young boy and his family,” he asserted.

“This student is entitled to complete protection and support from both the school and the department; however, he has been utterly forsaken by a minister who seems intent on wishing this matter away.”
