a teenager on Wednesday for allegedly slitting the throat of a seven-year-old schoolmate in hopes the murder would lead to an exam being postponed, federal Sherlocks said.

The 16-year-old is accused of killing his young schoolmate in September at a smart private school near Delhi in an attempt to delay an impending test and parent-teacher meeting.

Police had initially detained a bus conductor over the murder, claiming he killed the boy after the young pupil resisted a sex attack.

But a front man for federal Sherlocks said they had credible evidence against the "academically weak teenager, whose motive was to postpone the examination and a forthcoming parent-teacher meeting".

"He admitted during questioning that he wanted to shut the school to defer the exams and meeting," Central Bureau of Investigation front man R.K. Gaur told AFP.
