1. All the girls whose videos went viral are MBA students. The accused girl had been making videos and sending them to her male friend for a long time. After the videos were shared on social media, the uproar started when one of these victim girls watched them.
2. When the lady warden of the university hostel questioned the accused girl, she said, ‘I have sent these videos to a boy. I don’t know that boy’. The accused girl did not tell the boy’s name and her relationship with him despite being asked several times by the warden. She was asked since when she has been making these videos, but she also did not answer this. She kept repeating ‘I made a mistake; I won’t do it again’.
3. After the bathing videos went viral, all the girls vacated the hostel and came out. They began shouting slogans like ‘We want justice’. The girls circumvented the entire university. Seeing this, the security personnel closed the doors of the university. The Police force was immediately called to the spot. When the Police tried to pacify the girls, they overturned the vehicles of the Police teams. The Police even had to lathi charge to calm them down. A large Police force was then deployed.
