Cruel teacher in China holds a screaming child off the ground by his ears

Beijing, Oct 27: Chinese authorities have sacked a 20-year-old primary school teacher Yan Yanhong, after she posted photos of how she tortured primary class children on the internet causing outrage across China and the rest of the world. The young boy screamed in pain, as Yan hoisted him in the air by his ears. Seven hundred and two photos of Yanhong's class in Wenling, Zhejiang province, show children with buckets on their heads, with their mouths taped shut and dumped headfirst into wastepaper bins. Another picture shows a shelf in the classroom littered with empty beer bottles. Yan send the pictures to a friend, and the pics were posted on line resulting in outrage across internet. Yan defends her actions in lifting the boy up by the ears, saying: ‘I see him as a good friend, and just made fun with him. ‘I just wanted to take a picture, and after taking the picture, I instantly put him down.' The local education bureau said Yan has been dismissed and the school 'punished'. The disgraceful pictures emerged following a recent scandal over CCTV footage showing another Chinese schoolteacher repeatedly slapping her pupils. The teacher was shown hitting four children more than 120 times after they failed to answer questions.The disturbing 30-minute CCTV footage of her slapping and kicking pupils was recorded at a pre-school in Taiyuan, in the northern Shanxi Province. The incident came to light after the father of one of the little girls came home to find his daughter's face red and swollen. Han visited his daughter's playschool and demanded to see the CCTV tapes, which revealed the teacher abusing his daughter and three other children. He said: 'Within half-an-hour she slapped my daughter 43 times and kicked her twice.' The man, Han, said, the teacher slapped the other children 43 times, 27 times and ten times respectively during the short clip. ‘She should not be a teacher,‘ he said. ‘She is a monster.' The teacher in question has been sacked from the pre-school.
