Last year, 17-year-old ITE student Muhammad Zuhairie Adely Zulkifli was sentenced to serve 18 months in jail and receive six strokes of the cane for assaulting another student with a bread knife.
The incident came to nationwide attention in a viral video in March last year, where Zuhairie can be seen wielding a 35cm-long bread knife, chasing 18-year-old Ahmad Nurthaqif who apparently called his girlfriend "baby" days before the attack. The assault left Ahmad with slash wounds across his back, fractures on his forearm and fingers, as well as a cut behind his ear.
