Ryan student murder | Gurugram court denies bail to juvenile accused in Pradyuman case

The Gurugram Sessions Court on Monday rejected the bail plea of the juvenile accused in the Pradyaman Thakur murder case.

Earlier, the 16-year-old accused was denied bail by the Juvenile Justice Board on December 15, 2017.

Lawyer of Pradyuman's father Varun Thakur told media that the court said that 'in-camera proceedings in closed doors will be conducted from now on.'

The cold-blooded murder case of the seven-year-old Pradyuman Thakur took a new dimension after a Class 11 student of the school was arrested by the CBI. Earlier, a bus conductor was arrested for his alleged role in the case. He was subsequently released on bail. The accused reportedly said he committed the crime to postpone examinations.

After facing flak from all quarters, the Haryana Police accepted that omissions took place on their part during the probe. The cops also admitted that they didn't watch the closed circuit television (CCTV) footage carefully.

The initial eight seconds of the footage shows the now accused teenager calling Pradyuman to thewashroom. The team members, however, remained silent on exactly how they made this grave error.

Pradyuman, a class II student of the school, was found dead with his throat slit by a sharp-edged weapon on the morning of September 8.The weapon used in the crime has been seized."We have come to the conclusion on the basis of CCTV, forensic evidence and scientific evidence. The student has been apprehended. He remains our prime suspect," the spokesperson said.
