Khush not depressed, says boy's family

Published on: 

Our child is not depressed. He is a bright student. He changed school because he had scored a good marks in Class X Board exams,” said Manoj Aggrawal, uncle of the 16-year-old boy, who jumped from the terrace of his residential building in Ashok Vihar area on Wednesday afternoon.

Till Sunday, Delhi Police could not found a clear reason behind the mysterious fall of the 16-year-old boy. However, neighbours and relatives claimed that they certainly suspect that Kush took this step as he was involved in the deadly Blue Whale Challenge.

It may be noted that the Delhi Government has written to Google to remove this deadly game as it was playing havoc with the lives of teenagers.

Talking to The Pioneer, Manoj Aggrawal said, “Yes Kush had changed school. We all change schools but that does not mean he was depressed. The boy changed school with his own consent”. Moreover, police told us that he accidently slipped while flying a kite. If he had been flying a kite, there should have been kites and a manjha but there were none at the terrace, Aggarwal added.

Till Sunday, we have questioned all the close friends of Kush and his family members. Although there are no visible injury marks on Kush body, we are relying on his cell phone’s contents.

The police team is likely to question his schoolteachers and other peers on Monday, added the police sources.

The Delhi Police said that they are still trying to establish the exact sequence of events.

The shocking accident has taken place on Wednesday around 3 pm, when Kush went into his room after having his lunch while his mother went into another room to take a nap.

It was during this time that he went up to the terrace located on the fourth floor and minutes later, his blood soaked body was spotted by a neighbour at the backside of his building.

The family said that Kush, a Class XI student of Mont Fort School, continues to be in a critical condition and is admitted in the Intensive Care Unit of the Sir Ganga Ram hospital.

Police sources said that since the mobile phone of Kush Aggrawal is locked, they have sent the mobile to the forensic laboratory. The handset holds the key to unravel the mystery. Police officers said they will be able to get to the bottom of this incident once they can access the phone being used by the victim. If he was surfing net and was involved in Blue Whale Challenge, the forensic experts will be able to ascertain that, sources added.
