A man who went viral for beating his son for failing in a school examination has been summoned by the Police.

               
           
               
                   

In a video that has gone viral, the man said he couldn’t understand why his son would fail after he had spent over $21,000 on his tuition fees.

               
           
               
                   

He was captured slapping his son countlessly, while a woman in the background, believed to be his wife, begged for the boy to be spared.

The boy, who is a student of American International School of Lusaka, Zambia, failed to sit for his Math and English papers and failed in other courses.

               
           
               
                   

“I told you this is a scar on your entire life, do you know the reputation this gives you? You can’t read? You are a big boy you can’t read?” the father scolded.

               
           
               
                   

The latest development is that the Zambian police are investigating the matter after the video went viral.
