The victim's brother said that Gupta was Tuesday scolded by his teachers and sent back home for assaulting his classmates.
"The teachers used to torture him. Yesterday (Tuesday), they badly scolded him and drove him out of the school for beating up another student. But my brother insisted he did not beat up anybody. The teachers had made a guardian call and I was supposed to accompany him to the school," said the brother.
