The UK government reportedly takes custody of a 16-year-old teenager after reports of him being flogged by his doctor father.
According to reports, the adolescent had formed a study group with two of his friends at his father’s house in preparation for their exams.
The trio was caught watching an inappropriate video instead of studying for their GCSE exams, according to the father.
The father was said to have flogged his son in front of his two friends, who then called the cops and had him arrested.
According to the boy’s testimony, his father frequently flogged him for his persistence in studying hard to become a medical doctor like him.
UK’s Courts and Tribunal Hearings, however, took custody of their child until he turns 18.
