"Both (girl and boy) used to study together and were spotted by the girl's brother somewhere outside. In rage, he along with other boys beat up my son. We don't want anything but justice," Rajput's father told India TV.
"When I reached the spot, I saw his clothes were torn. His face had turned red, eyes and lips all swollen," Rahul's cousin said.
