New Delhi: In Pradyuman death case, Ryan International School Group's northern zone head Francis Thomas requested Supreme Court to transfer the case out of Haryana.

Garg said he had gone to deposit his son's fees on Friday and was standing at the main reception in the school when he heard some commotion. I saw two female teachers and two students were following an injured student who was being carried by Ashok Kumar. One of the teachers was weeping at that moment. She ordered Kumar to place him at the rear seat of the car, Garg said.

The committee has detected lapses on the part of the school such as broken window, ill-equipped fire extinguishers, common toilets, no police verification of conductors and drivers and other ground staff, broken boundary wall and low quality CCTV without having wide-angle facilities, students' toilets without guard, Singh said.

A fact-finding three member committee, constituted by the Gurgaon district administration, submitted its report to District Commissioner Vinay Pratap Singh.

Barun Thakur, the father of the victim boy, had intervened in the matter, opposing the Pintos' bail pleas.

The school, where the boy studied, is run by the group in Gurgaon. Group CEO Ryan Pinto filed an anticipatory bail application in the high court this evening, their lawyer said.

In a related development, the Bombay High Court granted interim protection from arrest to Ryan International Group's founding chairman Augustine Pinto and his wife and managing director Grace till Wednesday in connection with the murder. (Photo: PTI)

The seven-year-old boy, found murdered inside his school, was not sexually assaulted and died of excessive bleeding, the doctor who conducted the post-mortem said on Tuesday.

He further claimed that Kumar was behaving normally which is a rare thing for someone who has committed a crime, adding he recorded 1.14 minute video. The school bus' driver Saurabh Raghav claimed Kumar was made a scapegoat by the school teachers. (In Pic: Boy's father)
