Overview
- An FIR for attempted murder was first registered after Suraj Bhaskar claimed unknown assailants attacked him, but investigators later found inconsistencies and repeated changes in his account.
- Electronic checks of call records, BTS and tower data, along with the girlfriend’s statement, indicated he was intent on securing MBBS admission in 2026 at any cost.
- Officers recovered a diary with entries about becoming an MBBS doctor in 2026, and scene forensics noted syringes consistent with anaesthesia and a grinder or cutting device.
- Searches failed to locate the severed portion of the foot, and police reported no signs of forced entry or evidence of outside attackers.
- Bhaskar, a D.Pharm graduate who had failed NEET twice and previously sought disability paperwork at BHU in October 2025, is stable in hospital; his statement will be recorded when fit as police seek legal opinion on charges.
