The Scarsdale School came under the spotlight after a video of female students bullying another student went viral on social media.

The victim was reportedly beaten up and abused because she had refused to take drugs along with her schoolmates. However, Academia Mag has shared that the victim was close friends with the bullies and had been studying together school since Kindergarten.

Furthermore, the website claims that both Aleha Khan (the victim) and Kainat Malik (one of the bullies) have shared videos of drug use with each other’s fathers. Sources also revealed that the drug use videos were shot at a private party outside the school campus.

n FIR was registered by the victim’s father against the students following the incident.

However, the controversy has seemed to take an unexpected turn as the private school has refused to participate in the investigation and has refused to give CCTV footage as well.

The police officers managed to get a statement from four eyewitnesses. The controversial private school removed its principal, Bilal, and a canteen employee, Nasir, who was present during the incident.
