The mother of one of four boys suspended after 'accidentally' dropping a copy of the Quran says he has been left 'absolutely petrified' after receiving death threats. 

West Yorkshire Police recorded a 'hate incident' at Kettlethorpe High School after pupils caused 'slight damage' to a copy of the Quran when it fell on the floor. 

The Year 10 boy, who is 14 and autistic, was told by friends to bring in a copy of the holy book as a forfeit for losing at the video game Call Of Duty. It was then reportedly dropped, causing some damage and scuffing to the pages.  All four pupils involved in the incident at the West Yorkshire school were suspended and the police informed.

Officers investigating the incident found there had been only 'minor damage' to the Quran during the prank and that no crime had been committed.  It was recorded as a 'non-crime hate incident', a designation the police use to record incidents that don’t meet the criminal threshold.
