A 12-year-old Chinese boy has had to undergo eye surgery after his teacher allegedly told his classmates to slap him in the face.
The boy, from Zhengzhou in China's Henan province, was reportedly struck around 40 times after he failed to do his homework.
The teacher even apparently told the other pupils that the loudest slap would get a prize.
