In the full text of its verdict on the Bishwajit Das murder case, the High Court offered an unflattering reflection on the current trends in student politics as well as the criminal justice system.

The High Court yesterday upheld the death sentence of two BCL men, commuted that of four to life term and acquitted two in the case over the gruesome killing of Bishwajit Das.

Family members of Bishwajit were surprised at the High Court verdict and expressed frustration as the court upheld the death penalty of only two condemned killers.

Overcome with emotion, father of slain Bishwajit Das says the family is denied justice by the High Court’s verdict over the brutal killing of his son.

The High Court directs authorities concerned to investigate whether the investigation officer and the autopsy doctor were involved in any misconduct in making the reports over the death of Bishwajit Das.
