PETALING JAYA: A parent has lodged a police report against a school for allegedly showing an inappropriate video clip to Muslim pupils.
Intan Sabrina Mohamad said her eight-year-old son was terrified on Thursday after watching the 20-minute video clip that had explicit images of a corpse.
She said her son’s religious teacher had allegedly inflicted fear in the pupils by telling them, “you need to pray or this will happen to you.”
“My son said he’s seen hell and cried when I tried to put him to bed on Thursday night,” said the boy’s father Michael O’Leary.
O’Leary said the video clip should have been scrutinised by child psychologists to evaluate its impact before being shown in school.
The video clip allegedly shows scenes of funeral services and a corpse wrapped in white cloth with effects of thunder and lightning.
It had the words Sajak Kematian (Poem of death) at the bottom of the clip.
Intan Sabrina, a rehabilitation physician, said her son told her some pupils cried after watching the video.
The mother of two said a parent-teacher association meeting would be held tomorrow to look into the matter.
She lodged a police report at the Damansara Police Station on Friday morning.
According to the police report, a religious teacher had said he did not have to submit the video for scrutiny.
It is learnt he refused to withdraw the video which was shown during an extra-curriculum religious education programme.
Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein has instructed his officers to get to the bottom of the matter.
“If it is true, it is crazy,” he said when contacted.
Ministry director-general Datuk Alimuddin Mohd Dom said officers would visit the school next week and asked parents to write to him so he could investigate the matter.
Meanwhile, Malaysian Exami–nations Syndicate director Datuk Dr Salbiah Ismail clarified the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination will be from Tuesday to Dec 5 and not from Wednesday as was earlier reported.

Orang tua terdahulu berkata "melentur buluh biarlah dari rebungnya." Oleh itu, tayangan kepada kanak-kanak boleh dianggap betul kerana merekalah golongan yang masih suci dan mudah menerima apa-apa yang diajar. Jika tayangan ini kepada pelajar menengah atau golongan remaja, kesedaran atau impaknya tidak sehebat terhadap kanak-kanak. Mereka hanya sedar ketika ditayangkan dan ada antara mereka yang mempertikaikan isi kandungan dan menganggapnya hanya lakonan semata-mata. Pandangan seperti ini tiada pada kanak-kanak.
Bagaimana dengan trauma siri "Puaka Niyang Rapek". Drama ini juga menimbulkan trauma, kanak-kanak yang menontonnya akan ketakutan, takut ke dapur, takut bersendirian, malah takut di bilik air hingga ketika mandi pintu bilik air dibuka supaya ibu dan ayahnya dapat melihatnya. Adakah kita mendengar suara-suara mempertikaikan siri seram di TV3 ini?
Nabi pernah bersabda yang bermaksud orang paling bijak ialah mereka yang sering mengingati mati. Oleh itu, sepatutnya tayangan video 'Sajak Kematian' sepatutnya diterima dengan baik dan dialu-alukan sebagaimana masyarakat menerima siri seram di TV3 yang juga menimbulkan trauma. Malahan, siri seram TV3 ini boleh membawa kepada syirik apabila terlalu mempercayai apa-apa yang ditayangkan, berbanding 'Sajak Kematian' yang benar-benar akan ditempuhi oleh insan-insan bergelar kanak-kanak apatah lagi dewasa.
