Bangladesh Teacher Suspended After Allegedly Shooting Student in Exam
bbc.com | March 7, 2024 | Lipika PelhamLocal media report that Arafat Amin Tomal, a 23-year-old student at a medical college in Sirajganj, north-western Bangladesh, got into an argument with Dr Sharif while undertaking an oral exam on Monday.
During the exam, Dr Sharif allegedly brought out a gun and pointed it at the student, shooting him in the right knee, reports say.
The bullet reportedly hit Mr Amin’s mobile phone, in the pocket of his trousers, which spared him life-threatening injuries, according to Bangladeshi newspaper the Daily Star, quoting the police.
According to the Dhaka Tribune, there were 45 students in the class when the alleged incident happened. They rushed to help, locked the teacher in a room, and called the police.
No but I felt like shooting at least 3 of my teachers.
“I’m shot by Sharif, but he did not shoot any classmates…”
Not even my chemistry teacher when I overcooked Jiffy Pop on a Bunsen burner for the class Christmas party, although I admit he might have been tempted. He also wasn’t impressed when my lab partner and I set the school record for how far a cork could fly across the room when shot out of a heated test tube.
No, but my chemistry teacher once shot me a look that I fantasized about for the rest of high school…
Boy is he strict.

You shouldn’t shoot me during a test, Johnny.
My teacher shot me during a test, once.
ONCE!
No, but the first nine times I got in trouble he made me write my name on the bullet-ten board. When someone failed a pop quiz,that teacher had to take a test; a paraffin test. Most of the chalk was used to outline bodies. He took a pot shot at me once, mistaking me for Jerry Garcia. He had two last names, Smith, and Wesson. He was so tough that the answer to every question was 1911. We didn’t have a hall monitor, we had a Merrimack.
1911? – Thats because it was a watershed year… the first use of aircraft as offensive weapon occurs in Turkish-Italian War. Italy defeats Turks and annexes Libya. Chinese Republic proclaimed after revolution overthrows Manchu dynasty. Sun Yat-sen named president.

No but I did get stabbed in the knee with the pointy end of a circle making compass in high school. There’s still a blue mark under my skin to this day.
I cal it my tattoo.
So he goes to shoot him in the knee but his cellphone, in his pocket, blocks the shot. Dont you just hate it when the kids wear their pants so low..insolent punk.
Granted, if he aimed higher and hit him..thats an indictable offence…
