This brutal murder case had evoked widespread shock and outrage across the country, especially when investigation highlighted the lack of proper security at the school.

Central Bureau of Investigation,  arrested a 16-year-old student of the same school in the killing of the kid. The teen is awaiting trial after Juvenile Justice Board decided that he would be treated as an adult.
