The Bombay High Court had earlier rejected the anticipatory bail applications of Ryan International School's founder and Chairman Augustine Pinto, Managing Director Grace and CEO Ryan Pinto, reports said.
Augustine Pinto, his wife Grace and son Ryan had moved the top court seeking anticipatory bail after the school became the centre of a storm following the gruesome murder of a seven-year-old student inside the institute premises in Gurugram.
Ryan Pinto, the school group’s CEO claimed that the school was a victim of “unfortunate circumstances”
A conductor of the school's bus was arrested in connection with the incident. He allegedly confessed to have committed the crime after failing to sexually abuse the child.
As a massive outrage prevailed over the shocking incident, police have arrested two top officials of the school while the Supreme Court has accepted a petition from the victim's father for a CBI probe into it.
Meanwhile, the CBSE has issued a circular with guidelines for schools, regarding safety of children in schools premises.
