GOMBE, Nigeria - Muslim students at a secondary school in northeastern Nigeria beat a teacher to death [March 21] after accusing her of desecrating the Koran.
The students attacked her outside the school compound after the exam and killed her, witnesses said. It was not clear exactly what she had done to anger her attackers.
"We have received information that a female teacher has been lynched by her students. We are investigating the report," Gombe state police commissioner Joseph Ibi said.
In February, 2006, at least five people were killed and several churches burned down in neighbouring Bauchi by Muslims infuriated that a Christian teacher in a secondary school had tried to confiscate a Koran from a student who was reading it during class.
