(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

A Malaysian school teacher has been charged with the murder of a seven-year-old student at a private Islamic school in the northern state of Perlis.

The schoolboy was accused of stealing a couple of dollars from a classmate.

As punishment, the boy was allegedly tied up to a window, caned¹（以杖击） and beaten for two hours. He fell into a coma²（昏迷） and died in hospital three days later.

The boy's death has caused public outrage³（愤怒，暴行） with the deputy prime minister calling the case unforgivable.

Prosecutors⁴ charged a 26-year-old school teacher with murder but he did not enter a plea.

If convicted he could face the death penalty, which is carried out by hanging.

His lawyer asked the court to restrict media coverage⁵ of the case, but the judge refused.

This is believed to be the worst case of student abuse in the country.
