CBI to file chargesheet against juvenile in Ryan murder case

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) will on Monday file a charge sheet against juvenile in connection with the killing of 7-year-old Pradyuman Thakur at the Ryan International School.

The CBI had earlier alleged that the teenager killed Pradyuman so the school would be forced to postpone examinations and a parent-teacher meeting.

On December 20, the JJB had held that the teenager would be tried as an adult and noted that the accused was mature enough to recognise the consequences of his actions. If convicted, the accused will stay in a correctional home till he is 21 years old after which the court can shift him to a jail or grant him bail.

The Gurgaon Police had claimed the crime was committed by a school bus conductor, which was later refuted by the CBI.

The 16-year-old student of at Ryan International School in Gurugram has been accused of killing 7-year-old Pradhuman Thakur. Pradhuman was found with his throat slit in the school's washroom on September 8, 2017.
