Lamka, December 02 2009: A 15-year-old inmate of Angel’s Place, a children home was admitted in the District Hospital due to internal injuries sustained in the course of punishment by his warden. The boy identified by his attendants as Lianlalsiam s/o Chinkhovung of Singngat village was admitted at around 8.30 pm on Saturday at the Medicine ward of the hospital but following discovery of his nature of injury, doctors referred him to the Surgical ward of the same hospital, source said. When contacted the children home authorities said, corporal punishment was never a part of their policy, but the indecent conduct of the boy concerned when the warden caught him red-handed supposedly influenced him (warden) to act beyond their policy. Nevertheless the warden had apologised to the home authorities and promised not to let his emotions coerce his duty, added the source. The boy allegedly was mimicking his warden and disturbing his colleagues who were in the midst of their exam when he was caught red-handed by the warden. He had also been served at least eight warnings before the incident on Saturday, the source alleged. Five units of blood, including three today has been given to the boy which home authorities claimed was doing very well at the hospital. However, doctors attending to the boy referred him to better equipped hospital in Imphal today as bleeding in his anal showed no signs of improvement even after four days of admission to the hospital. Attempts to collect the version of the boy proved futile as he refuses to response queries made by the media.
