Sai Kumar, a 17-year-old student injured in Delhi’s Amar Colony firing case, finally lost the battle of life. Sai, who was seriously injured in the firing on May 27, died in the hospital on Monday. Since the incident, he was on ventilator support and his condition remained critical. According to the police, Sai Kumar died around 11:45 am on Monday. Doctors had already told the family that the bullet was stuck in his brain and his condition was very critical. He was admitted to the hospital in a coma-like state for the last six days.
This incident took place on the evening of 27 May at a food shop located in Amar Colony area of south-east Delhi. Sai Kumar had gone there with his friend after giving his 12th class examination. During this time he had a dispute with some boys. The family alleges that three boys had commented on the girl present with them. When Sai opposed this the controversy escalated. It was told that the accused left from there, but returned after some time with weapons. After this he beat up Sai and shot him near his head.
Police investigation has also revealed that the dispute may have started due to touching or hitting the chair. However, the investigating agencies are investigating all aspects. After the incident, information was received at the police control room at around 7:50 pm. Sai was immediately taken to the hospital by his friends, where his treatment started. But despite all efforts his life could not be saved.
