Bihar Incident: Former Student Abducted And Assaulted Outside Patna School, Probe Underway

Patna, July 2: A shocking incident has emerged from the Digha area of Patna, where a former student of St. Michael's School was allegedly abducted and assaulted outside the school premises.

According to police, several Class 10 students of the same school are suspected to have been involved in the incident, which has raised serious concerns about security outside educational institutions.

According to preliminary information, the former student had visited the school on Thursday to collect his certificate. As he came out of the campus, a black Scorpio SUV allegedly stopped outside the school, and four occupants forcibly pulled him into the vehicle. The victim was then allegedly assaulted before being taken away.

Police Launch Search Operation

Following information about the incident, the Patna Police launched an immediate search operation and set up checkpoints across the area. Sensing an increased police presence, the accused allegedly abandoned the victim near the school before fleeing the spot.

Confirming the incident, ASP (Law and Order) Krishna Murari Prasad said that the alleged abduction appears to have stemmed from a dispute between the former student and some junior students that had taken place a few days earlier.

CCTV Footage Under Review

The incident has also raised questions about security outside the school premises.
