109. He Killed His Family, Partied in Prison, & Escaped: Sajal Barui Case

On the midnight of 23rd November 1993, a family’s massacre jolted Shubham Apartments in the Dum Dum region of Kolkata. When the cops arrived the scene of crime, they realized there was one survivor, 16 year old Sajal Barui. Soon, that notion changed. According to India’s Juvenile Justice Act, a person under the age of 18 is viewed as a minor, and is tried as such when they commit a crime. But there are a few rare cases that blur the moral distinction between a child and an adult, a minor versus a mature person, a kid as opposed to a killer. On the midnight of 23rd November 1993, those lines were blurred forever.
