Boxer killed Indian-origin student in UK
London, July 14
A Indian-origin student killed in a brawl in England in 2011 was punched by a boxer who had breached his bail conditions from a previous offence, a new report revealed today.
Jagdip Randhawa, 19, from south-west London, was punched by boxer Clifton Ty Mitchell during a night out in the city of Leeds on October 12. After being hit, Randhawa struck his head on a pavement and was taken to a hospital.
He died five days later. Mitchell, now 26, was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to seven years in prison in 2012.
The latest report into the killing found that Mitchell had breached bail conditions for a previous violent offence 24 times in the preceding five months but no action was taken by Derbyshire Police.
“Our family will always be haunted by not knowing what might have happened if Mitchell had been arrested as he should have been,” the victim’s sister, Majinder Randhawa, told BBC. — PTI
