Earlier in the day, senior lawyer Ram Jethmalani had said that Gurugram's Ryan International School is ultimately responsible for the murder of its student in the school premises.
Talking to ANI, Jethmalani said, "There should be an absolute liability of the school management because they are ultimately responsible. The children are given to them in their guardianship."
A Gurugram Court on Saturday sent the accused to three-day police remand.
