A chilling incident in Tarn Taran district of Punjab shook a college campus when a student opened fire on his female classmate before turning the gun on himself. The tragedy, captured on CCTV, has left the academic community in disbelief and raised urgent questions about campus safety and the reasons behind such extreme violence.
The Murder-Suicide: What Happened?
On Monday, during class hours at Mai Bhago Law College in Usma, an apparently routine academic session turned into a horrific crime scene. Prince Raj, a student from Mallian village, suddenly shot his classmate Sandeep Kaur, a resident of Naushehra Pannuan, in the head inside the classroom. The impact was fatal, and Sandeep was declared dead at the scene.
Immediately after the shooting, Prince Raj turned the firearm on himself and died by suicide. Both students were pronounced dead at the site, leaving fellow classmates and faculty members in shock. CCTV footage from the classroom captured the entire sequence of events and has become a key piece of evidence in the investigation.
