An Egyptian court has sentenced a schoolteacher to six years in jail for beating a pupil to death because he had not done his homework.
Maths teacher Haitham Nabeel Abdelhamid, 23, took Islam Amr Badr outside the classroom and hit him violently in the stomach.
The 11-year-old boy fainted and later died in hospital of heart failure in the city of Alexandria.
The court was told the boy had four broken ribs.
Abdelhamid was convicted of manslaughter.
