A whistleblower has testified of a “culture of oppression” against students and teachers of SMK Taun Gusi, Kota Belud, fomenting fear that kept them from voicing out on any issues or problems.

This was according to Nurhaizah Ejab, who appears as the 15th plaintiff witness in the lawsuit by former student Siti Nafirah Siman against her teacher Mohd Jainal Jamran for allegedly failing to show up in class to teach in 2015.
