Authorities are preparing to file a homicide case against a teacher who slapped a Grade 5 student who eventually died in Antipolo, the city's police chief said Tuesday.

Antipolo Police chief PLt. Col. Ryan Mangondo said they are waiting for the autopsy report and seeking consent from the parents of the victim’s classmates to testify.

[Translation: We have to know the real cause of the student’s death. That’s why the medico legal and the autopsy report is very important to the complaint to be filed to the teacher.] He was found to have internal bleeding in his brain, which caused him to go into a coma before he died on Monday, she added.

In a separate statement, the local schools division office also said the principal “has assigned an alternate teacher to handle the classes of the concerned who is on-official leave.” The school management also sought professional help to counsel students over the death of their schoolmate, she said.
