The victim, identified as Sukru Hessa (30) was brutally murdered just outside the school campus. The assailant identified as Hari Hembram, who is reportedly mentally ill, killed the teacher after dragging her out of her class-room at about 12.30 pm, while she was teaching the school.
Moreover, the assailant after the gruesome act took the head in his hand and roamed about the locality for an hour or so after being nabbed by policemen.
