After being sent to the juvenile home for killing his mother and 11-year-old sister, the boy did not utter a word for the first 24 hours. He has been housed in a separate ward for the initial days as the management of the juvenile home is apprehensive about his disposition. “He might get violent and attack the others,” stated an official of the juvenile home.
However, gradually the boy has started opening up with the other inmates and has even played some board games with them. In the meantime, a team of doctors and counsellors are keeping an eye on him and trying their best to keep him out of depression. Gurgaon News
According to a senior officer of the observation home, the boy was remorseful and had cried for some time when he was brought in by the cops.
“He was accompanied by his father and relatives around 6 pm on Saturday. He had hugged him and kept crying," said Nem Chand, superintendent of the observation home.
“His offence is rare and absurd and hence we have kept him in a separate ward. Once we start seeing a normal behaviour pattern, we will move him to the general ward with other inmates. We have also told the other inmates not to discuss or ask him about the incident. Surprisingly now the boy is spending time reading novels of famous legends like Mahatma Gandhi and Swami Vivekananda," Chand added. Apartment management system
The boy will now undergo an examination by a psychologist.
The juvenile house has 130 other inmates from five districts that include Gautam Budh Nagar, Ghaziabad, Shamli, Meerut and Muzzafarnagar.
