Highlights 1 Ashok Kumar told CBI his confession was coerced: Sources2 Ashok Kumar was the bus conductor arrested by Gurgaon Police for Pradyuman Thakur's murder. The Central Bureau of Investigation today not only turned the Pradyuman Thakur murder case on its head, but also seems to have put Gurgaon Police in the dock. The last bit is a likely reference to Ashok Thakur confessing to murdering Pradyuman Thakur in front of media cameras on the day after the killing. The Class XI student is believed to be the first person to have raised an alarm on September 8 over Pradyuman's throat-slit body. The minor detainee is due to be produced in front of the juvenile justice board, which will decide whether the student can be tried as a major in the Pradyuman Thakur murder case.
