In a press conference on July 25, 2023, the director of Netra Jyothi College Rashmi Krishna Prasad said, “The incident occurred last Wednesday when I was out of town. When I came back the very next day, we suspended the students. The girls were suspended for bringing the mobile to the college, which is prohibited, and for recording the video”.
Rashmi further said, “Three girls told the victim that their target was some other girls, but she was mistakenly videographed. They reportedly deleted the video. However, the victim told her friends about the incident, and they reported the matter to the management”.
Rashmi also clarified, “As soon as we came to know about the incident, we immediately suspended the three girls involved. Though the victim was reluctant to lodge a police complaint, we informed the police about the incident. We also handed over the mobile phones used for recording the video for forensic examination”.
The three girls who took the video are classmates and the other girl belongs to another class.
When the inquiry was made, no video was found in the mobile, the college director said.
“The three girls have confessed that they did it for a prank. We have banned the use of mobile phones, and bringing mobile phones to the college was a mistake. The girls were suspended,” she said.
“Using the incident, false news is being spread that videos of hundreds of girls are taken. We don’t see religion in college students. The people belonging to the religion of three girls have staged a protest condemning their act. I request not to spread false news,” she added.
