This high school graduation trip really got out of hand! Several students from the Zurich Cantonal School in Hottingen beat an asylum seeker in Locarno TI last Friday. The man was seriously injured by high school students, said Chancellor Daniel Zahno. “When I was informed, I was shocked and surprised that our students could do something like that and that this fight has escalated like this,” he told BLICK. One has never had a problem with violence in the Kanti.
The fight broke out in the early hours of last Friday. That day the class would have gone home anyway and would probably let it break down again last night. The rector still does not know in detail what exactly happened and why the fight broke out. But he doesn’t think racism played a role: “There is no evidence for it.”
Several high school graduates interviewed by the police
None of the schoolchildren who had to make their high school graduation trip to Switzerland due to the corona virus were injured: “Now they are all back home. Several were questioned by the police, but no one was arrested. Police procedures are still ongoing. “
The rector is now trying to find out how the asylum seeker is doing. “I am in contact with the Ticino police and I am trying to obtain this information.”
Either way, Zahno thinks of disciplinary measures for racket students. Shortly after the incident, she informed students and parents about the incident in a circular. That is “in contradiction with the values lived in the school.” Y: You wish the asylum seeker in question a “speedy and full recovery.”
Ticino police confirmed the incident to VIEW, but were unable to provide further details. “The investigation is still ongoing, so we cannot yet say how many students were involved in this dispute and also who initiated the dispute.” The injured asylum seeker is still in hospital.
