Bihar detains three youngsters for hurling stones at a train.
In connection with a recent incidence of stone-throwing at the Howrah-New Jalpaiguri Vande Bharat Express train, three young boys were apprehended by police on Thursday in the Bihar district of Kishanganj.
The event that occurred two days ago was the subject of a case that was filed on Thursday, according to a statement from the Kishanganj police. The semi-high-speed electric train travels through Bihar and makes a brief stop in Barsoi in the Katihar district, which is close to Kishanganj, on its way between Howrah and New Jalpaiguri, both in West Bengal.
After learning from railroad officials that stone-throwers had attacked a coach of the Vande Bharat Express on January 3, police claimed they launched a case under the Railway Act. They stated that a video recording of the incident was checked.
Four youngsters, all 14 years old, were located in Nimal village, which is near the Potiya police station. They were all apprehended and brought before the juvenile justice board, three of them. The fourth teen is being sought after, according to the authorities.
