School bully forces classmates to drink urine

The headmaster and a teacher of a primary school in East China's Anhui province have been suspended after it was discovered that a student had been extorting his classmates and even forcing them to drink urine, local education bureau said.

A class monitor of sixth grade repeatedly blackmailed the seven students of the class at Huoxing primary school in Huaiyuan county and on two occasions even forced them to drink urine when they did not pay the money, said the county education bureau. The class monitor has been transferred to another school, reported CCTV News.
