"We have named Aleksander Nitti as a suspect in the criminal case of molesting and beating Anselmus Nale, whose video has gone viral on social media," said Kupang Police Chief, AKBP FX Irwan Arianto when giving a press statement in Kupang, Antara, Thursday, June 9.

In addition to Nitti, the Kupang Police also established a suspect status for a resident named Iwan who was involved in persecuting Anselmus Nale.

The beating and persecution took place on Tuesday at around 12.30 WITA in the school meeting room during the discussion of the exam results.

During the meeting there was a difference of opinion between the principal and the victim, which led to the repeated beating of the Principal of SDN Oelbeba, Aleksander Nitti, against Anselmus Nale.

Feeling pressed, the victim Anselmus Nalle tried to run out of the room and was shouted at by the wife of the school principal, so he was chased by a resident named Iwan who also beat the victim.
