<Anchor> The
fact that kindergarten teachers have been terribly abusing children in China is shocking.
He stabbed the children for not listening, and another teacher was sentenced to death because he was confirmed to have fed them with poison.
This is Kim Ji-sung, correspondent in Beijing.
<Reporter> This
is a kindergarten in the Neimenggu Autonomous Region in China.
Needle marks were found on the bodies of children in this kindergarten.
It was found on the thighs, waist, and even the head, and there were also blood spots.
About 10 children were victimized, and the children said the teacher had stabbed them with a needle.
It was because I didn't take a nap or listen.
[Mother of the victim: The child said that the teacher did that, and that the child stabbed it with a needle. He said why he was stabbed, so he didn't listen.] The
local police arrested three kindergarten teachers.
Prior to this, the Henan Province court sentenced Kindergarten teacher Wang Mo to death.
Wang was charged with putting the poisonous sodium nitrite in the porridge that children eat in March last year.
Sodium nitrite is a carcinogen and is known to harm the liver and kidneys.
[Mother of the victim: The child's lips and fingers turned black. When I flipped my clothes, my stomach was all black.]
25 kindergarteners were addicted and one died.
Wang was found to have fed porridge containing poison to the children in her class in retaliation after quarreling with a fellow teacher.
Anxiety about child abuse is spreading this time in China, where students went to school all at once as the corona crisis subsided.
