The classmate then reportedly threatened the victim, stating, 'I will see you outside the school.' On July 17, after classes concluded, the victim's path was blocked by a group of 'outsider boys' armed with iron rods and knives. They confronted him about the dispute with his classmate. When the victim stated there was no fight, the assailants began their attack, shouting to use bricks and declaring he 'should not escape today.' The boy was hit on the head, forcing him to flee back into the school for safety. The attackers then fled the scene on a Yamaha R-15 and a Hero Splendor motorcycle, issuing further threats. Shockingly, three days later, on July 20, one of the accused, accompanied by other boys carrying baseball sticks, attempted a second attack at the victim's residence in Dadumajra. However, they fled when a crowd gathered, leaving their Splendor motorcycle behind. The victim's family immediately contacted the police. Personnel from Maloya Police Station arrived, seized the abandoned motorcycle, and recorded statements. Following the father's written complaint and verification of CCTV footage from the school vicinity, the police on Thursday registered an FIR under Sections 115(2), 126(2), and 351(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023. The complaint names the classmate and four to five unidentified boys in connection with the assault.

3 held for assaulting security guard, robbing his bike in south Delhi
Three unemployed college graduates, suspected to be drunk, impersonated police officers, assaulted a security guard, and stole his motorcycle in south Delhi on Thursday, police said. The three were arrested on Saturday, police said on Sunday. Police recovered the victim's Hero Splendor motorcycle which the accused had abandoned on a roadside in Janakpuri, officers said. (Representational image) The accused, identified as Prashant Kumar, 22, a BTech graduate, Garvit Sharma, 25, who has a bachelor's degree in computer applications (BCA), and Aniket Singh, a postgraduate in computer applications (MCA), have no prior criminal record, officers said. 'At 7.27pm on Thursday, the Indira Gandhi International Airport police station received a call from a man who identified himself as Amarpal Singh, 47, a security guard employed at a business centre in Gurugram Aerocity. He said that he was on his way to work when three men on a motorcycle waylaid him near the Mahipalpur underpass,' said additional commissioner of police (IGI Airport) Usha Rangnani. 'The three claimed to be police officers, accused Singh of rash riding and causing a road accident, and seized his bike's keys. They asked him to accompany them to the police station. When Singh asked to see some identification, the three became angry. One of them slapped him while another got on his bike and fled. The remaining two fled on their motorcycle,' Rangnani added. A police team arrived on the scene, met Singh and later registered a case of cheating by impersonation. Police examined footage from nearly 300 CCTV cameras installed on routes that the accused used during the crime. They identified the motorcycle and its owner, Siddharth (single name) from Shakarpur in east Delhi. Siddharth told police that he had given the bike to his friend, Garvit Sharma, a resident of Palam village, a year ago, said officers. Police showed Siddharth's photograph to Singh, who told them that Siddharth was not one of the three men who had assaulted and robbed him, said officers. 'Sharma was arrested from Palam on Saturday through technical and human intelligence. His interrogation led to the arrest of Aniket Singh and Prashant Kumar. The three revealed that on Thursday, they had consumed liquor in a park in Kishangarh village. After getting drunk, Prashant expressed a desire to do something 'thrilling'. Acting on this impulse, the three conspired to rob a motorcycle by impersonating police officers and executed their plan later that evening,' said Rangnani. Police recovered the victim's Hero Splendor motorcycle which the accused had abandoned on a roadside in Janakpuri, officers said. Police also seized Siddharth's motorcycle from the accused.

Three drunk friends pose as cops, steal bike; caught
New Delhi: What began as a night of revelry turned into a misguided act of thrill-seeking and crime. Garvit Sharma (25), a BCA graduate, Prashant Kumar (22), a graduate, and Aniket (23), who holds an MCA degree, had been close friends since their college days. On June 26, after consuming alcohol, the trio hatched a reckless plan—to impersonate police officers and steal a motorcycle. Their target was Amarpal Singh, a security guard riding his Hero Splendor motorcycle near the Mahipalpur underpass. Garvit blocked Singh's path while the others posed as police officers, falsely accusing him of rash driving. Prashant snatched the keys from Singh, and when the victim demanded to see their identification, Aniket responded by allegedly slapping him. Prashant then fled on the bike, while Garvit and Aniket escaped on their Bajaj Enticer. Next morning, IGI Airport Police swung into action. "The case was cracked within 24 hours through examination of over 250–300 CCTV cameras," said Additional Commissioner of Police (IGI Airport) Usha Rangnani.
