Two parents worried, shocked at sons' involvement in viral 'bully' vid
Two parents living in a Potong Pasir estate are in shock after learning of their sons' involvement in last Saturday's incident.
The teenagers had grown up playing football and basketball together.
But their friendship took a beating when one of the teens was attacked by two boys known to him.
The other teenager has been called up by the police because he was there where it happened.
The victim's mother said she was terrified when she saw part of the video clip of her son being kicked and punched.
She said: "I learnt of the incident only a day later because my son didn't want to tell me what happened to him. Now, we keep our doors closed and I have ordered my son not to go out."
The 55-year-old father of the other boy has banned him from going out or contacting his friends.
The man, who learnt of the incident only yesterday morning, said his son was "not thinking properly".
"I told him not to be stupid and never to follow others for no reason, especially if there's going to be a fight. I hope his school will pay more attention to what boys are capable of these days."
The worried father said his concern stems from an incident two years ago when his eldest son was stabbed by a secondary school student.
