Parent on teacher assault charge refused bail

SHABANNA Singh, 28, of Lot 1081 South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, has been charged with assaulting a teacher at her son’s school.

She appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson-Ogle yesterday and pleaded not guilty to the April 29 unlawful assault on Natasha Paul, at North Georgetown Secondary School.

The virtual complainant said the defendant had gone to the school to collect her son and, because the security guard banned her from entering the compound as she was not properly dressed, she verbally abused him.

Paul said, after she intervened in the matter, she turned to walk away but Singh grabbed her and was about to strike her when students restrained the attacker.
Singh was remanded to prison and until tomorrow.
