“This news, which was conveyed by the Police, is heart-wrenching and most disturbing considering the age of the person involved.

“The governor while thanking the police for the arrest and interrogation of the suspect, has communicated to the police hierarchy in the state his desire to ensure that justice is meted out on the culprit and all persons involved in this crime. This is the least that would be acceptable”.
