MOOT COURT

In a school named ABC, Anurag, the school teacher, founded that Sameer, a
student of std. 8, was misbehaving in class. To punish sameer, Anurag sent
him to the adjoining classroom and asked him to write an essay on good
behaviour. Sameer was locked inside the room and was informed that the
door will be open as soon as he completes his essay. Sameer while writing
the essay, falls asleep and did not wake up until the classes were off. That
day Chowkidar Gajanan was supposed to clean all the classrooms and then
lock them from outside. Chowkidar Gajanan instead asked peon Kashiram
to do that job that day. Kashiram did not open the classrooms to clean
them, but instead locked the rooms from the outside without opening them.
Sameer could possibly climb on a chair and come out through a small
window in the room. Sameer did not reach home and his parents made
enquiry in the school. On enquiry by sameer’s parents, chowkidar Gajanan
informed that there was no child in the school. Next day, when the school
reopened, sameer was found unconscious in the school. He was immediately
rushed to the hospital and his parents were informed. Sameer died in the
hospital because of suffocation. About hearing the death of her son Sameer’s
mother suffered nervous shock. She was hospitalised immediately and
remained hospitalised for two months. The doctors declared that she has
suffered permanent mental disorder because of the shock. Sameer’s father
had to take two months leave to attend his wife in the hospital and his
temporary service in a private firm was terminated. Sameer’s father filed a
case against the school authorities, the teacher Anurag and chowkidar
gajanan for negligence and other damages.

Issues be framed like wise.
