National MP Sam Uffindell was asked to leave King's College while he was a student after he was involved in a late-night violent beating of a younger boy, according to one report.
Aged 16 as a Year 11 student at the Auckland boarding school, Uffindell and three others reportedly jumped on the boy and began beating him with what was believed to be unscrewed wooden bed legs, according to Stuff.
It was reported the now MP for Tauranga apologised to his victim 22 years after the attack and nine months before he revealed his political aspirations.
Sam Uffindell joined Heather du Plessis-Allan.
