Swift justice unfolded in Greater Noida as Knowledge Park police cuffed two elusive wardens accused of driving a BTech student to suicide through mental agony. The Wednesday takedown of Sudhanshu Shekhar Dubey and Rohit Bhati near IIMT was the result of meticulous surveillance and tip-offs.
At the heart is the devastating loss of Udit Soni, a Jhansi resident pursuing BTech year two, found dead in his Knowledge Park-3 hostel on late January 23. Parental outcry exposed a toxic regime of harassment by staff, leading to FIR registration and initial arrests on January 25.
Shekhar, a Bihari transplant from Buxar, and local Rohit from Dadri, both 35-ish fixtures at the hostel, rounded out the suspect list. Evidence from interrogations solidified their roles in the torment.
Court presentation signals advancing prosecution, with police vowing uncompromising stances against such abuses. ‘Student lives are paramount; we’ll root out every threat,’ sources quoted. Beyond arrests, this saga amplifies cries for regulatory overhauls in hostels, ensuring mental well-being keeps pace with educational ambitions.
