The Bengaluru police on Tuesday booked two students -- Syed Afzal Ali and Vishal Banerjee -- for the murder of Manipur boy Richard Loitam. However, neither student will be arrested immediately as the police is waiting for the forensic report.
Amid growing public outcry over the death of Manipuri student Loitam Richard, who died under suspicious circumstances in his college hostel in Bengaluru last month, a former minister from the northeastern state on Tuesday demanded immediate arrest of those behind the "killing".
The death of a 19-year-old Manipuri boy under suspicious circumstances in his college hostel in Bangalore has sparked protests demanding justice for the student with his friends and family alleging that that he suffered fatal injuries in an assault by his seniors.
