The police have caught a 14-year-old boy who was suspected to have murdered Prabuddha. They initially suspected she had killed herself, but a crucial clue helped them nab the teenage suspect, the police had said.
The boy, a friend of Prabuddha’s younger brother, allegedly stole Rs 2,000 from her purse on May 13. He needed the money because he had accidentally broken his friend’s spectacles and had to buy a new one for his friend.
Prabuddha discovered the theft and called him to her house two days later and asked for the money to be returned. Despite his apologies, she refused to listen to him and threatened to inform his parents. This has finally led to the murder of Prabuddha, the police had said.
According to the police, the teenage boy slit her wrist with kitchen knife. But Prabuddha’s mother suspected that the teenage boy had an accomplice. (ANI)
