The family of the juvenile, apprehended in connection with the murder of his seven-year-old school mate at Ryan International School in Bhondsi, claimed on Tuesday that the teenager had told the Legal Probation Officer that he had been framed in the case.
Speaking to The Hindu , the juvenile’s father claimed that he, along with his wife, had gone to meet his son, who is at the Observation Home in Faridabad, on Monday. A woman Legal Probation Officer happened to reach there to prepare the Social Investigation Report. The father claimed that his son told the officer that he had not committed any crime and was beaten up by CBI officials to ‘confess’ to the crime. “I don't know about the exact sequence of events narrated by my son to the lady officer, but he told her that he was being framed. He has told the same thing to us as well,” said the father. He claimed that his brother, waiting outside the observation home, spotted CBI officials as well.
Though a senior Child Welfare Committee official denied that the officer had met the juvenile, the observation home officials claimed that the officer, Nisha Saini, had visited the home and met the boy separately for almost an hour.
