NEW DELHI: A day after a 14-year-old boy died in a fight with other students inside his school in Karawal Nagar area, police are now probing the role of other students and the school management.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (North East) Ajit Kumar Singla stated that the family of the deceased boy Awadesh have given the names of four persons to the police, who are being investigated. One boy has been apprehended in the case.
When asked whether there was any negligence on the part of the school authorities, the DCP stated that they are probing the matter from several angles.
Meanwhile, the relatives of the victim on Friday protested in front of the school, blaming the negligence of the authorities for the death of Awadesh.
The boy's sister Kanchan said that when they entered the school asked for justice, they were told to leave.
"When we reached the school, we were told to leave. We just want justice for my brother. It was total negligence from school authorities which resulted in death," Kanchan told Millennium Post.
On Thursday, during a quarrel with other students, Awadesh was rendered unconscious and later died.
"The accused used to bully him and call him names, which led to the fight between them," said police officer, adding that no injury marks were found in the body.
He further said that they are awaiting the post-mortem report to ascertain the cause of death.
