A Belgian court on Friday sentenced 18 members of a college fraternity to community service over the death of a black student during a two-day hazing ritual in 2018. | ManilaBulletin

Sanda Dia, then 20, suffered hypothermia and a cerebral oedema after ingesting a large quantity of alcohol and a salty cocktail laced with fish oil then collapsing in an icy pond.

But the court was more lenient as it handed out only community service sentence for "grievous bodily harm resulting in death without intent to kill". The court said that the members of the now-dissolved fraternity "took action as soon as they saw" that Dia was in danger.
