The Gurugram sessions court on Monday dismissed the bail application of 16-year-old student of Ryan International School accused of murdering Class 2 student Pradyuman Thakur of the same school.
The denial of bail is yet another setback to the class 11 student after the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) on December 22 ruled that the teen would be tried as an adult in the case.

This is the second time that accused has failed to get a bail from the court.
Meanwhile, Pradyuman’s father thanked the judiciary for the judgment.
On December 15, the JJB had rejected the bail plea of the teen student of Ryan International School who allegedly killed the class 2 student in the washroom of the Gurugram school in September.
On September 8, Pradhuman was found dead with his throat slit in the school washroom, minutes after his father had dropped him in the morning.
Initially, the Haryana Police investigated the case and arrested bus conductor Ashok Kumar. Later, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) took over the case and arrested the Class 11 student of the same school for the crime.
