A class 10 student was stabbed 27 times in 30 seconds inside a snooker club in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, with the accused themselves allegedly circulating the CCTV footage of the incident on social media. The CCTV as per a report by NDTV, shows two minors entering the club and, within moments, they cornered the victim and launched a brutal attack using a knife and a dagger. In half a minute, the 16-year-old boy was stabbed 27 times. The attackers fled immediately after.
The victim as per reports, suffered over 10 deep cuts on one wrist, had two fingers severed on the other hand, and sustained serious injuries to his shoulder and back. Despite the brutal assault, he managed to escape and was rushed to the hospital, where he is undergoing treatment. According to Police, the injured student, a resident of the Gautam Nagar police station area, was a regular at the club.
The accused, also 16-year-old class 10 students, attended the same coaching centre as the victim. Investigators said the motive was revenge following a dispute during a pool game. It is alleged the victim had slapped both accused earlier.
The attack as per NDTV, took place on the night of February 15 at a club in Ganesh Chowk. The video surfaced online on Sunday. Sub-Inspector Manipal Singh Bhadoria stated, “The case was initially registered under sections related to assault, and more serious charges will be added once the medical report confirms the extent of injuries.” Authorities detained the two minors, who were served notices and released.
The case comes months after a 16-year-old boy was killed by a classmate, who allegedly attacked him with a knife inside a classroom at a coaching centre in Pune. The attack was apparently the fallout of a previous dispute between the two boys, who were studying in Class 10, they said. The incident took place at a private coaching centre in Rajgurunagar, according to the police.
