3 year remand for teenager held guilty in two terror attacks

On Wednesday, the Juvenile Justice Board sentenced a teenager to 3 years remand in a special home. The teenager was found guilty in two terror attacks-bomb blasts in Bodh Gaya and Modi's Hunkar rally in Patna in 2013.

Hunkar rally was held in October 2013 in Bihar by the then Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi. Modi was addressing the gathering in Gandhi Maidan as a series of blasts were triggered in which 6 people died. The blasts left 89 people injured.

The Juvenile Justice Board has also found the teenager guilty for the blasts in Bodh Gaya. He was held guilty by the Board for conspiracy to carry out serial bomb blasts in both the cases.

The age of the accused was just 15 to 16 years when he took part in the conspiracy. Due to his age he may get away with little punishment.
