“Akshay Shinde's murder was a planned conspiracy. The police have killed my child. The school management must also be probed along with the police. We will not accept Akshay's body until there is an investigation and the culprits are punished,” she told Aajtak.
The mother and his uncle also spoke to reporters outside the hopsital and questioned the police version. They asserted that he could not have snatched the weapon of a policeman. He was not depressed, they added. "The police have killed our child. The school management must also be probed. The police got him to write something but we don't know what it is," the family alleged. "My son was afraid of bursting crackers and crossing the road. How can he shoot at policemen," she asked as quoted by PTI. Akshay's father Anna Shinde also said that an inquiry should be conducted into his son's killing.
