Elementary Coach makes kids get naked?

The male coach of a sports team at an elementary school here forced several schoolgirls to run around naked inside the school's gymnasium in August as punishment for their attitude.

After subjecting the girls to the treatment, the coach allegedly made them sit in an upright position without any clothes on while he lectured them. He also reportedly hit students on the head, and several of them complained that they were afraid of him.

One girl who described the coach as "scary" is now suffering from depression because of the punishment(s). Prefectural and municipal officials have reportedly begun counseling the students to prevent them from suffering post-traumatic stress disorder. The coach had led the team for several years, but this year he allegedly became infuriated over the attitude of students to training and made eight fifth- and sixth-year girls at the elementary school run around naked.

His actions were uncovered after several parents complained to municipal government officials the following month. The worker has admitted to the allegations, and officials are considering punishing him.
Officals are considering punshing him? What the heck? Let me repeat that- they are considering whether or not to punish him? What are they considering!?! The only decisions you’d think is whether or not to completely revoke his teaching license or just fire him. Maybe I’m missing something here, but seems like a pretty cut and dry case to me.
