Student's suicide: Petrol bomb hurled at school bus in TN
After a 15-year-old student, S. Sabari Kannan, died by suicide in Veeravanallur, Tamil Nadu—reportedly following disciplinary action at school—tensions rose sharply.
On Thursday night, unidentified people threw petrol bombs at parked school busses and vans.
Kannan's family and supporters have been protesting outside the police station, demanding accountability from the teachers involved.
Kannan passed away on July 17
Kannan passed away on July 17 after being hospitalized for poisoning earlier this month.
During ongoing protests, things escalated when some demonstrators allegedly vandalized vehicles with petrol bombs after police held talks with the protesters.
Authorities are investigating to track down those responsible for the arson.
