The CB-CID investigating officers, probing the death of the 13-year-old boy who was shot by an Armyman in Chennai, said they are examining some Army officials.
Sources said the investigators have identified the killer but are waiting for the Army to hand him over to the probe agency.
Dilshan’s mother Kalaivani, a resident of Indira Nagar Colony near the Army enclave, on Tuesday told reporters that the man who killed her son should meet the same end. “He should not be put in prison, but shot like he shot my son,” a distraught Kalaivani said.
The Army is likely to soon order a court of inquiry to ascertain the circumstances in which the boy was killed in firing from an Army compound at Fort St. George in Chennai on July 3.
