In a similar incident, a class 11 student was brutally attacked by a group of as many as 20 boys outside the gate of a private school in the Sushant Lok area of Haryana’s Gurugram earlier this month. According to police, the attackers first tried to kidnap the victim.

An official said the victim’s father Amit Dahiya, a resident of Gurugram’s Krishna Colony, received a call from the school in the afternoon informing him that his son had been admitted to Umkal Hospital after a physical attack.
“When I reached the hospital, I found that my son was in a very bad condition,” Dahiya said in his complaint, police said.
Dahiya said his son told him that three classmates and 17 others were lurking outside the school gates and pounced on him as soon as he stepped outside.
According to police, the victim suffered multiple injuries to his body, including his eyes, and is being treated at a private hospital.
Dahiya had told police that the attackers wanted to kill his son.
“They came in five vehicles and surrounded him with the intention of forcing him into one of the cars. The suspect also concealed the license plates of the cars by sticking stickers on them. The school staff confirmed what happened and the entire incident was captured on CCTV footage,” Dahiya said in his complaint, police said.
