Friday marked a turning point in Bihar’s most talked-about case: the dubious death of a NEET hopeful. Home Minister Samrat Choudhary wasted no time, hauling DGP Vinay Kumar and Chief Secretary Pratyay Amrit for a no-holds-barred review after the victim’s family beseeched him directly.
Hailing from Jehanabad, the teen was found semiconscious in Shambhu Girls Hostel, later dying in Patna from brutal wounds. Shocking FSL findings pointed to rape, demolishing the force’s suicide verdict and igniting bribery allegations. The distraught mother blasted police graft in a DGP showdown: ‘Corruption runs deep; they’re hiding the assault.’
Distrust peaks as the family decries foot-dragging on SIT reports. Six suspects now under SIT grill, with leads solidifying per insiders. Choudhary’s residence hosted the power-packed huddle—IG Rana, SSP Sharma, ASP Abhinav, and team dissecting every clue.
This isn’t just a murder mystery; it’s a litmus test for Bihar’s justice delivery. Political heat rises with rallies demanding CBI intervention. Choudhary’s pledge for meticulous scrutiny could yield arrests or expose rot. For the shattered family and watchful public, only unvarnished truth will heal the wound. The clock ticks toward resolution.
