JAKARTA - An elementary school student who was a victim of bullying in Malang Regency, East Java, has completed surgery at the Kanjuruhan Regional General Hospital (RSUD) to raise blood clots in the brain.

Director of the Kanjuruhan Hospital, dr. Bobi Prabowo, said that the operation procedure was carried out on Thursday (1/12) to prevent the trauma impact experienced by the eight-year-old student.

"The operation must be carried out so that in the future it will not have a negative impact. Even though the current condition is good, we are thinking ahead, because the person concerned is still a child," said Bobi, quoted from Antara, Friday, December 2.

The team of doctors has conducted a Computerized Tomography (CT-scan) examination on the child and the results of the examination show trauma in the form of swelling and bleeding in the brain, which can have a negative impact on the child.

"Patients do experience swelling and bleeding in the brain. However, for incomplete bleeding, on the one hand," he said.

An eight-year-old child with the initials MW was abused by a number of his seniors at school until he was unconscious. As a result, the child of a resident of Senguruh Village in Kepanjen District must undergo treatment at the Gondanglegi Islamic Hospital since November 17, 2022.

The case of bullying and child abuse was handled by the Women's and Children Protection Unit of the Malang Police Criminal Investigation Unit.

Police officers have examined 12 witnesses, seven of whom are children who are in conflict with the law, in the case.

The police examined elementary school grade VI students who were suspected of bullying and molesting MW and school residents who knew about the incident of bullying and abuse carried out on the eight-year-old child.
