Details

Abhishek Tyagi (14), a student studying in grade 8 was shot dead by Suchismith Roy (14) and Jayarama Rao (13).

Suchismith Roy used his father's gun to kill Abhishek. Roy's father left the gun unlocked and Suchi brought the gun to school and hid it in the school toilet. After school was over he took the gun to the school bus and shot Abhishek Tyagi four times at close range after handing the gun over to his friend Jayaram who shot Abhishek once but missed.

Tyagi was taken to Pushpanjali Hospital with two bullets found in his chest and one bullet found in his head.

It's worth mentioning that the two accused have alleged that the school management and their principal did not take any action against the victim who not only bullied them but had also threatened to kill them.

school authorities had never called the parents of these three students involved in Tuesday's case since they did not feel the need for it

India, more and more people in places like Gurgaon own guns because they are a symbol of power and prestige in caste-ridden and feudal northern India.

Motive

Suchismith Roy had gotten into a fight with Abhishek Tyagi and though the fight was resolved by the school authorities Abhishek had vowed to kill Suchi. Suchi took this threat seriously and decided to act before Abhishek and killed him.
