A student at the heart of a violent video incident has denied rumors of being expelled from school. This development comes amid ongoing controversy in Japan, where a video purportedly showing the student involved in a violent act went viral. The date, location, and precise details of the incident have yet to be released, but several schools and local communities are reported to be on high alert.

In Japan, matters related to school violence and the use of social media are taken very seriously by society. Schools enact strict policies to ensure a safe environment for students. The decision to expel a student is treated with particular gravity. There are concerns surrounding the harm that social media can bring when used as a platform for circulating damaging content and its impact on those involved.

In comparison, the US and EU also have strict anti-bullying policies and regard expulsion as a serious consequence. The use of social media to incite violence or harm is similarly discouraged, but unlike Japan, the focus often leans more towards the instigators rather than the victims of these incidents when it comes to punitive measures.
