On a day the Centre cleared a proposal to amend the Juvenile Justice Act, CCTV footage of five minors stabbing a 19-year-old boy to death in a south Delhi market brought the focus back on the rising brutality of juvenile offenders.
The victim, identified only as Sachin, sustained 15 stab wounds in the attack on Tuesday. The five accused, identified as minors by the police in a press note, were apprehended Wednesday on the basis of the footage and a statement from the victim’s friend.
The footage captured by a CCTV in a shop in Madangir central market shows Sachin and his 17-year-old friend passing by on a motorcycle when they are apprehended by the five boys. It is 3pm, the market bustling with shoppers. They attack Sachin, who falls off his bike, and stab him repeatedly, including in the neck. His friend manages to get away.
