The development comes at a time when a group of IIT Bombay students intensified their ongoing agitation over Sahil's death by launching a hunger strike on Friday to demand accountability.
Besides Sahil Wakode's parents, who are on a hunger strike at Azad Maidan in south Mumbai, and his fellow students, the Crime Branch has also recorded the statements of IIT hostel staff and others.
Sahil Wakode’s friend told the Crime Branch that the deceased spoke about his Thermodynamics examination during their conversation, and he was concerned that the exam had not gone as expected.
