Speaking to ANI, expressing deep anguish and rage over the loss of his son, the grieving father demanded a strict, mirroring punishment for the assailants. "Everyone demands that what happened with my son should happen to their sons as well. My son was shot in the head twice; the administration should shoot them in the head... They will commit crimes again," he said. The teenager succumbed to his injuries on June 1, a day after he was shot outside a restaurant in Amar Colony, according to Delhi Police. Police said two accused, identified as Yash Bidhuri, a resident of Tughlakabad, and Jai Kumar, have been arrested in connection with the case. One minor has also been detained.
