Police say initial observations found no visible injuries, but a foam-like substance was coming from his mouth. Doctors suggested a possible convulsion. Police are questioning students and teachers.
Prince’s father, Sagar, a sewer line worker, disputes the possibility of a seizure. “My son was completely healthy and had no history of fits. He would even play football and was a good player, participating in inter-school tournaments and winning several medals,” Sagar told PTI, adding that “something is fishy in the school’s and police’s theory.” He says other students told him Prince collapsed after a fight with a classmate. Sagar says teachers then transported Prince to Holy Angels Hospital, which later referred him to Fortis.
Sagar says he dropped his son off at school before work and received a call at 9:45 a.m. that Prince was hurt. Upon arriving at the hospital, his son was dead. Prince’s uncle, Vineet, questioned the absence of teachers during the incident.
The school has not commented.
