One of the teachers of the Talmud Torah of Satmar in Borough Park, who desires to remain anonymous, said, "This is a serious problem, unfortunately there are many teachers who believe beat and beat children sometimes until they bleed, they trust that our public is not going to tell the police, because if a parent informs, he is banned, and the children cannot be accepted into any institution of Satmar, not girls and boys.
" Lithuanians Talmud Torah, do not punish with blows, only Talmud Torah of chassidim, I'm very much afraid that after this incident, there are more cases and parents will not be afraid to inform on the teacher who hits," said the teacher.
