Ryan International School became national topic after the murder of Pradhyuman Thakur, a class 2 student. The incident shook entire country. His body was found in one of the school’s washrooms. The unfortunate and dreadful incident lead to many angry parents protesting. The murder of the young boy received huge media coverage.
Finding the accused was very difficult but also very important. The police came under huge pressure from media, parents and several others. Under this situation, Gurgaon Police accused the school bus conductor Ashok Kumar in the murder case. If that was not enough, he was also charged with sexual assault. The case was declared ‘closed’ by Gurgaon police.
However, CBI probe in the case tells a totally different story. The investigation has revealed some very uncomfortable truths about the murder case. It is said that the evidence was fabricated.
In this case, a 16-year-old student of the same school was prime accused of the murder. After getting detained by the CBI, the boy has confessed to killing that child in front of his father.
A special team of CBI questioned him and remained tight-lipped throughout the investigation. They were looking to check if other people were involved in the crime.
According to the report, the juvenile killed that boy because he wanted to deviate the attention from an impending parent-teacher meeting, which was scheduled on the same day. He wanted to digress the attention because he was very weak in studies.
A CBI officer sheds some light on the case in an interview to a leading daily TOI. He said:
“The knife was bought by the juvenile from a local shop and he brought it with him inside the school. This is the only knife which was recovered and so the claim of Gurgaon police that Ashok Kumar brought it inside the school and used it to kill the boy has no basis whatsoever.”
Talking about the sad detail of the murder, juvenile confessed that the victim didn’t show any resistance and the act “happened within seconds”
Talking about the same, CBI officer said in TOI report, “He has disclosed that he slit the throat within seconds and left the toilet. There was no resistance from Pradhyuman whatsoever as he didn’t get time to react,”
It is very sad, as it completely demolished the theory of Gurgaon Police, which had pinned down the bus conductor. They claimed this after finding a CCTV footage, which showed the conductor exiting the washroom. On top of that, the fabricated theory of Gurgaon Police also claimed that the conductor took the knife from the school kit and slit kid’s throat.
The conductor will be exonerated from all the accusation made soon, all thanks to the CBI who conducted a thorough investigation and examined all the suspects from the school.
” All the circumstantial evidence and statements of witnesses, analysis of CCTV and technical data prove the involvement of the juvenile. We may also send clothes, Pradhyuman’s school uniform, the knife and other objects may soon be sent to retrieve any DNA evidence.”
It is really sad that police department just pinned down such big crime on an innocent man without even doing their job properly.
Finally, Justice has been served!
