New Delhi: On Friday evening residents of Jamia Nagar led a candle vigil was organized under the banner of United Muslim Front, from the Mosque in Jauhari Farm area to the Jamia Nagar Police Station demanding justice for a 13-year-old boy, who was murdered last week.
A week ago, 13 year old Arham Hussain, a Class VIII student and only son of Mohammad Samir from the fairly ‘posh’ locality of Jauhari Farm in Jamia Nagar had gone for regular hair cut to the nearby salon. As he did not return till late evening, worried family filed a police complain and even pout out posters about the missing boy.

On Saturday, family had received a ransom call and when the police located the number, they reached the salon. After investigation and questioning the barbers at the salon, the police found the decomposed body of the boy in a metal trunk in the shop on Sunday. The young boy was strangulated to death and later acid was poured on his body for decomposition.
