A kindergarten teacher in China has been given a 15-day detention after repeatedly beating a six-year-old pupil during lunch time.
The girl was punished by the educator because she ate her food too slowly, said police in the city of Dehui in north-eastern China's Jilin Province.
Police said the teacher hit the child more than 10 times on the forehead and shoulders, causing her to sustain injuries.
