MICA student murder
He was on his way to the hostel of the residential institute with his friend after buying a cake from a pastry shop in the city’s Bopal area around 10.30 pm when they had a heated exchange with the driver of a speeding four-wheeler over dangerous driving. The car driver turned around and followed the students for about 200 metres before taking out a knife from his vehicle and stabbing Jain.
The student was rushed to a hospital where he succumbed to his injuries. The Ahmedabad rural police had on Tuesday released a sketch of the suspect and assured anonymity to whoever helping in identifying the alleged killer. The alleged attacker was booked for murder under section 103(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and under section 135 of the Gujarat Police Act for contravention of orders.
