According to the FIR registered at the Satnampura police station and as per the statement of the injured student, Ahmed Mohammad Nour Ahmed Hussen, he and the victim, Mohammad Wada Bala Yousuf Ahmed, were returning from morning prayers with two Sudanese female students when they were stopped by a group of Indian men.
