MUMBAI: Two school students, accused of killing an 18-year-old collegian for having stared at them, were held from Goregaon (E) recently. The duo, aged 16 and 17, had accosted collegian, Ghulamsingh Gusai, on Friday when he stepped out to buy milk. They fled after the murder. Kurar police traced them within 24 hours and sent them to Dongri observation home.


Police said the accused and Gusai had clashed earlier over trivial issues and they had a grudge against him as they thought he would stare at them and try to humiliate them.


On April 12, they came face-to-face with Gusai when he stepped out with a friend to buy milk. Gusai and the two traded abuses and they pushed him to the ground and stood with one foot on his head. They kicked him on the head, causing him to land on a rock and bleed profusely. Leaving him to die, they fled. Gusai's friend informed his family and he was taken to hospital.


"Our informants told us they were hiding in Santosh Nagar," detection officer Dhanesh Satardekar said.
