Series of murders in recent times
Indians living in US have been dying on a regular basis recently. Amarnath Ghosh, a Bharatnatyam and Kuchipudi dancer from Birbhum, West Bengal, passed away in the US on February 27. He was apparently shot numerous times while out for a stroll in the evening and was brought to a hospital. At the hospital, he passed away.
Indian student Akul Dhawan, 18, died of freezing to death on January 23 after being turned away from a nightclub. The official cause of Dhawan’s death was revealed in a statement released by Champaign County Coroner Stephen Thuney. According to the release, the death was an accident.
“On Tuesday, January 23, 2024, an autopsy was conducted to determine that Dhawan’s cause of death was hypothermia. Acute alcohol intoxication and extended exposure to extremely cold temperatures were major factors in his demise”, the press release stated.
An identical event was reported in Seattle last year, when police officer Kevin Dave’s patrol car struck and killed an Indian student named Janhavi Kandula. Dave struck Kandula near the intersection of Dexter Avenue North and Thomas Street while traveling at 74 mph (119 kph) in response to a report of an overdose. Her body was reportedly thrown roughly thirty meters (one hundred feet) away. According to the most recent update, it has been revealed that Dave, who struck Kandula and killed him, will not be prosecuted for any crime because of “lack of evidence.”
