Friends of the Purdue University student who was allegedly killed by his roommate said they had been gaming with the victim when they suddenly heard him screaming.
Varun Manish Chheda, 20, was discovered dead in his room at McCutcheon Hall in West Lafayette after the suspect, Ji Min “Jimmy” Sha, 22, called 911 to report the killing early Wednesday, campus police said.
Indiana police described the crime as an “unprovoked and senseless” murder.
University police have confirmed with WTHR that Chheda was online gaming with pals the night he died.
One of the friends, Andrew Wu, told the news outlet that he had been participating in a game with Chheda when he heard screaming through the gaming platform.
Another pal, Arunabh Sinha, told NBC News that Chheda had been playing and chatting online through Discord late Tuesday when they also suddenly heard screaming on the call.
Sinha, who did not take part in the gaming session, was told by others that they heard the harrowing attack and had no idea what was going on, according to NBC News.
Campus police Detective Lt. Matt Rosenbarger told WTHR that Sha, a junior from South Korea majoring in cybersecurity, was not online or gaming with friends.
Police Chief Lesley Weite said during a press briefing that Sha was quickly taken into custody on a charge of murder.
Chheda, a senior data science major, died of “multiple sharp force traumatic injuries” and the manner of death was a homicide, according to preliminary autopsy results reported by NBC.
Sha appeared to mutter “I love my family” as authorities took him to jail Wednesday.
Meanwhile, several students at the residence hall where Chheda was killed said they had no clue about the homicide there until hours later — and learned about it mostly from the media.

“Diversity is our strength”.
I’ve seen this before in other cases and, in those other cases, the murderer is often failing class or failing to live up to his parent’s expectations.
So, he commits a form of suicide by destroying his life by committing a murder and allowing himself to be caught.
Maybe so... Then again, the perp is a senior in college. He couldn’t have been doing so poorly if he made it this far.

The victim was a nice young man who was very studious, according to his friends.
The roommate reportedly stabbed him to death. Horrific.
Diversity can be good when common goals are sought.
Otherwise, it is chaos.
Have the diversity freaks realized that when everyone interbreeds and there is only one skin color and one global cultural viewpoint,there will be no diversity at all?
Right now, this crime doesn’t seem to have anything to do with “diversity,” unless it turns out the Korean student was prejudiced in some way against the student of Indian background...?
This story is really about how no one can be fully trusted. People are conditioned to trust certain types of people: for example, we picture college STEM majors studying math - not committing murder.
The victim was a nice young man who was a good student majoring in data science. He was of Indian background. He probably felt very safe at his college.
His roommate was a student from Korea majoring in cybersecurity. People tend to think of smart, studious people as trustworthy. Apparently this one was dangerous.
So sad for the victim. This was a horrific crime. By all accounts, he was playing a game when this nutcase attacked him.
