Ryan murder: Ashoke's father says no one listens to poor
New Delhi, Nov 21 (IBNS): After his son got bail, father of bus conductor Ashoke Kumar, allegedly arrested for murdering Pradyuman Thakur in Ryan International School, said no one listens to the poor people.
After Ashoke was granted bail on Tuesday his father told media: "We are poor people that's why no one was listening to us."
Thanking the court, Ashoke's father alleged that the Gurgaon Police beat his son "mercilessly" to make him confess that he had killed the 7-year-old Pradyuman.
The bail was granted by a civic court.
Ashoke earlier confessed that he was the one who killed Pradyuman.
Apart from Ashoke, the police has suspected a class 11 student of the same school to have committed the crime.
Though Ashoke had confessed his act of murdering the seven-year old boy, the Central Bureau of Investigation (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 Ashok 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.
