Jayanta was today questioned by senior CID officials at Bhawani Bhawan, the CID headquarters here.
"Jayanta had earlier claimed that he was tied by the dacoits who had entered the school. But there were discrepancies in his statement. So we decided to interrogate him once agian," a senior CID official said on condition of anonymity.
He was brought to Bhawani Bhawan at around 10 am and being interrogated by senior CID officials in phases.
