Ryan murder: Class XI student sent to juvenile home

The accused was sent to juvenile home since the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) officials said they did not require further interrogation.

Meanwhile, the bail plea of bus conductor Ashoke, who was arrested on charges of murdering a seven-year old Pradyuman Thakur in Ryan International School, will be heard on Nov. 16.

Ashoke's lawyer had traveled from Rohtak to Gurgaon to file the bail plea.

Though Ashoke had confessed his act of murdering the seven-year old boy,  the CBI apprehended a class XI student of the same school in connection with the murder.

The senior student eventually was arrested.

Being a juvenile, his name was not disclosed.

After a CBI probe it appeared Ashoke was possibly framed for a crime he did not commit.

The CBI has revealed that Gurgaon police had planted the murder weapon, a knife, that was used to kill seven-year old Pradyuman Thakur in Ryan International School, on bus conductor Ashoke Kumar.

According to the CBI, the weapon belonged to the class XI student.

The teenager allegedly wanted to impede the approaching exams and parent teacher meeting and hence killed the boy.

Earlier, the suspect's father had said that his son was wrongly framed but on Thursday, the latter confessed to his crime in front of his father, said reports.

Ashoke's family has said that they will now file a case against the cops for planting evidence against him, reports said.
