Police said they received a call about the incident around 11:15 pm on Tuesday. The suspect, however, was nabbed by the cops on Wednesday morning. The identity of the accused was not disclosed by cops, stating that he is a minor.

They, however, said that the accused, a school drop-out, was drunk when he was involved in the act and that he is a resident of Jafrabad.

What Led To The Murder

According to cops, the accused tried to rob the victim and when he refused to give up whatever little money he had, the 16-year-old fought with the victim and then choked him.

The boy was taken to GTB Hospital by locals, where he was declared brought dead.

CCTV footage from the area helped cops to identify and apprehend the suspect.

All For Rs 350

While speaking about the incident, Joy Tirkey, the deputy commissioner of police (north-east), mentioned that the two boys were not previously acquainted.

“They encountered each other in Janta Mazdoor Colony. The victim declined to hand over the Rs 350 he had with him, prompting the suspect to attempt a robbery,” Tirkey explained.
