A twelve -year -old boy died of alleged pesticides consumption after being charged with the “theft” of a package of tokens from the store and forced to sit from a shop in Pansko in Paschim Medinipur district, a policeman said on Friday.
A student of class 7 Krishend DAS reportedly picked up a package of chips from the Gosaiber Bazaar shop in Panskura on Thursday evening after he did not find a trader Subhankar Dikshit. He repeatedly called “Uncle I buy tokens” without any answer and finally left the store with one pack of chips, the officer said, quoting his sad mother.
He was reportedly persecuted by a dikshit, who soon returned to the store, slapped and asked for a sit-up in full public perspective, said the officer quoted a family complaint.
The officer said the probe is going on
Das’s mother was summoned and cursed him and slapped him while the boy claimed to raise an unhealthy food package lying in the pile in front of the shop and began to pay later.
He even offered to immediately apologize for raising the packet without the consent of the store owner, but the store owner accused him of lying.
After returning to his house, he returned to his house, screwed the door from the inside and did not open the door.
After some time, his mother, together with the neighbors, opened the door and found that the tension from the mouth with a half empty pesticide bottle lying on his side, said the officer, adding that the note that reportedly loaded into it in Bengal was lying on the side.
“Maa, I’m not a thief. I didn’t steal. The uncle (merchant) wasn’t around when I was waiting. When I came back, I saw a buckure package lying on the road and lifted it. I love turmeric,” the note said.
Krishend also said, “These are my last words before departure. Please excuse me for this act (consuming pesticide)”.
He was taken to Tamluk Hospital and accepted ICU, but soon he died.
The owner of the shops, also a civic volunteer associated with the Bengal police to help in operation, initially claimed that the child had not thought of.
But after the incident became known, he could not be traced like a crowd compiled before his closed trade.
