He however admitted that he did tick off a member of the committee for using the school for personal gain.

In the previous incident that happened in March 5, the school was launching a motivation programme, an unidentied man went and verbally abused him but he did not take the matter seriously.

He said he didn’t expect such incident would recurs and on the advice of some of his friends, he decided to lodge a police report on the two incidents and will bring the two men to court after the police has completed its investigation.

“I need to take legal action so as to prevent such incidences from recurring and if anyone wanted the school PTA chairmanship position, they can always contest in the next general meeting which is not too far away” ,he added.
