KARACHI: Sindh's education department has suspended the registration of a private school for keeping children under illegal confinement and torturing their parents for fees.

All the complaints lodged by parents against the private school were found to be valid, and a report regarding the incident was submitted to the education department by the investigation team.

According to the report, due to the delay in submission of fees, children were kept in illegal confinement and fees were taken in cash.

The report sent to the Sindh Education Minister Sardar Ali Shah recommended suspension of the school's registration.

Following the report of the investigation committee, the education department suspended the registration of the private school.

A day earlier, a private school in Karachi had reported violence against parents of the children for delaying the payment of fees. Moreover, the school administration had also stopped the official team from entering the premises of the school.
