Moot Court Problem
Ankit, a school teacher, found that Prakash, a student of his class who was about 10 years of age, was misbehaving in the class. By way of punishment the boy was sent to the adjoining room and was asked to keep sitting there and to write an essay on good behavior. The room was bolted from outside and Prakash was told that the door would be opened after he completes the essay. The boy fell asleep and did not wake until the classes were over. Manish, the Chowkidar on duty, who was supposed to clean all the rooms and then lock them, asked Naman a peon to do the job that day for him. Naman did not clean the same and locked that room from outside. There was a possibility of the child (Prakash), climbing on a chair and coming out through a small window in the room. The child remained in the room till the next day. On enquiry by the child’s parents from the school Chowkidar, they were told that all the children had gone back and there was no child in the school. When the school opened the next morning, the child was found unconscious. He was taken to a near by hospital but he died there. Prakash’s mother suffered nervous shock. She remained hospitalized for 2 months. The doctor then declared that she suffered permanent mental disorder. Prakash’s father was a temporary employee in a private firm. He took 2 months leave to attend his wife in the hospital and his service was terminated.
Prakash’s Father (Mr. Rakesh) sued Ankit, Manish and the school authorities to recover the following losses:
1. False Imprisonment of Prakash.
2. Shortening of expectation of life of Prakash.
3. Medical Expenses incurred on treatment.
4. Nervous shock to his wife and consequent loss on her treatment.
5. Loss of Job.
6. Vicarious Liability of the school management.
7. Mental Agony and suffering due to the above stated losses.

Dear Sir,
It is not known by whom the question is posed. Normally in such incidents the courts take into consideration the responsibility of each person and each of them will be liable to pay the compensation to the legal heirs of that child.
