The postmortem report of the six-year-old boy, who was found dead in a water reservoir at Ryan International School in south Delhi, prima facie does not indicate any sexual assault, Delhi Police Commissioner BS Bassi said today.

On 30 January, Devansh Kakrora, a class 1 student at Ryan International School in south Delhi’s Vasant Kunj, was found dead in a reservoir under the school’s amphitheater, following which the principal of the school, a teacher and three non-teaching staff were arrested for negligence causing the boy’s death. All of them had got bail the same day.

A day after the arrests, the police also sent notices to Ryan group’s Chief Administrative Officer and Northern Zone Head seeking information on charter of duty for the school authority and construction of the underground water tank.

After the incident, the child’s father had alleged that the boy might have been sexually assaulted before this death.

Devansh’s father met Bassi in the afternoon today and expressed his doubts over the investigation. He insisted on a CBI probe.
