According to students who did not want to reveal their names, two teachers from moral education office showed up in the classroom and asked the students to leave the class and then began searching the whole room.

An iPhone, a Samsung and a Xiaomi phone were discovered after they searched all the desks and school bags. Teachers told the students to come forward and admit who had brought them. When nobody came forward, the teachers smashed the devices.
