A special court has framed charges against Arman Khatri, a fellow student at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT-B), for allegedly abetting the suicide of Darshan Solanki. Solanki, an 18-year-old student, tragically jumped from his hostel building on February 12, 2023. The court has charged Khatri under sections 306 (abetment of suicide) and 506(2) (aggravated criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code, along with provisions of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Khatri has pleaded not guilty. Evidence presented includes a note found in Solanki's room stating, 'Arman has killed me,' and witness statements. Khatri was arrested on April 9, 2023, and released on bail a month later. An investigation by IIT-Bombay reported no specific evidence of caste-based discrimination against Solanki, despite his family's claims regarding the environment at the institute. The trial is set to commence soon.
