This shocking video captures a belligerent day care teacher
- who was arrested after this video came to light
- violently whacking at least 10 of his young pupils in Egypt....
The master, Magdi el-Shaar, who teaches in Kafr Shukr in Gharbiya state,
is shown viciously pulling hair and whipping students with a ruler.
The young children, who could be as young as five, cry and recoil at the
pain administered by el-Shaar, who insists that he was driven to his
actions as the January revolution had caused the pupils to became indisciplined.

As his tiny students line up to have their homework marked,
he orders them over to his desk, barks at them in Arabic
and then smacks them - on the hand, or back of the neck
- with a wooden ruler.
On occasion - particularly with the female students - he grabs them,
pulling hair and physically beating them.
One girl dressed in pink comes in for particular sick punishment
as the man repeatedly hits her and pulls her hair.
At times the teacher appears to be smiling, and the people being
the camera filming can be heard sniggering from time to time.
The video appeared on the Internet earlier this month and sparked
worldwide outrage, which in turn led to el-Shaar's arrest.
And when the horrific video finally finishes, the camera pans round
to reveal two more adults, including a woman wearing a burkha,
who are in the room who have been watching the whole scene.
Thousands of people have watched the outrageous video and,
according to Egyptian broadcaster Al-Ahram, the teacher was
captured by police officers.
The Gazette said he has been arrested and questioned by local
prosecutors for beating up the children attending the centre,
which has been closed down upon orders by the Minister
of Social Solidarity.
According to local reports he said in his defence that physical
abuse was the best means for straightening out children
and teaching them, especially after the January 25 revolution
which saw the exit of President Hosni Mubarak,
who ruled the Middle Eastern country for 32 years.
El-Shaar allegedly told prosecutors: 'Beating and corporal
punishment are the best means for disciplining children specially
after the January 25 revolt.'
Egypt's school system is notorious for teachers using physical
violence in classrooms.
In 2008, a teacher was arrested in the coastal city of Alexandria
after allegedly beating a student with a ruler and then punching
him in the stomach.
The young boy's punishment, reportedly for not doing his homework,
caused heart failure and eventually led to his death.
