The
police had to lathicharge a mob outside Gurgaon's Ryan International
School this morning after it resorted to arson and later detained 20
people. Three busloads of police men had been called to the school after
a nearby liquor store was set on fire by hundreds of protesters, who
want the police to take action against the school where a seven-year-old
child was found murdered inside a toilet on Friday.
"We
appeal all of you to please vacate this area peacefully. Do not resort
to violence," said a senior police officer, addressing the crowd on
loudspeakers.
