The boy who assaulted a six-year-old girl at the government-run Sanskriti Model School in Panchkula guided the child's father to the classroom on 1 November, where the girl was discovered unconscious, Hindustan Times reported. Police said the eight-year-old attacked the girl on 28 October, pulling her hair, striking her head and kicking her, causing severe injuries that required treatment at PGIMER in Chandigarh.
The incident prompted the suspension of two teachers and a suo motu inquiry by the Haryana State Commission for Protection of Child Rights. Earlier reports noted the girl, who has special needs, was also hit with stones and a flowerpot, and was transferred to the Civil Hospital in Sector 6 before being moved to the tertiary centre.
