BEHRAMPORE, 23 JULY: Police in Murshidabad have arrested a teenaged boy who brought a live bomb to school today. Sabirul Sheikh, apparently a firm believer that all's is fair in love and war, allegedly planned to attack a rival for the affections of a girl, both of them fellow students.
At around 10.30 a.m. as the students and teachers of the Chhatina Kandi Gurupada High School in Kandi municipality were getting ready for the daily prayer meeting, Sheikh, a standard VIII student, was heard asking around for a senior, Krishna Ghosh, a class X student who had beaten him up yesterday. The two had reportedly quarrelled over Krishna’s girlfriend, also a student of the co-educational school.

When Sabirul Shiek told a classmate that he was planning to blow Krishna's head “to pieces” with a bomb that he had in his bag, the classmate panicked and told a teacher. The headmaster, on being informed, called in Sabirul, and took him to his classroom where, after ordering all the students out, he made Sabirul take out the bomb from his schoolbag and place it in a bucket of water.
Police were informed later and the student was arrested, said the headmaster, Mr Narasingha Roy. The SP, Murshidabad, Dr Bharat Lal Meena said: “We need to find how a live bomb came into the hands of the student
