Udupi, Jul 25: College administration has issued a clarification in connection with the alleged students video in the college washroom.
Addressing a press briefing here on Tuesday, July 25, Rashmi, director of the college said, "Mobiles are not allowed in college, but as soon as we learned about the incident we have enquired from the students. Based on the investigations, students have been suspended as disciplinary action. They have also apologised for their mistake. Immediately on the next day police have been informed. The police also arrived at our college and another round of investigation was carried out with the students in presence of their parents. We have given the mobile phones to the police for investigation. Our aim is to give good health workers to society. We never allow mobile phones to avoid such indecent incidences. It is my responsibility to ensure safety of the students."
Rashmi said, "Victim has denied to file a case during police intervention. She said that it's the question of her and other students' future is involved in this incident. The students have clearly stated that it was made for fun only. They have submitted a apology as well for the same.".
Replying to the social media rumours Rashmi said, "Don't spread falsehood and confusing messages without proper knowledge on social media. Don't spread any misinformation. As a legal advice we have handed over the phones to the police. We are not supporting anyone in this matter."
Balakrishna, academic coordinator, told reporters that, "Victims approached us and informed us. There is communal angle. The other students of the culprit's religion have protested against this incident. As we did not have any solid visible proof we handed over the phones to the police to take further action."
Rajeep Mondal, principal, was also present on the occasion.
