The police inaction has raised many questions with the victim’s family members and villagers staging protests demanding immediate arrest of the culprits.
The incident took place at Kodihalli village in Hosadurga town in Chitradurga district on December 20.
The father of the 19-year-old victim, who was studying at a pre-university college, said that when they last saw her, she was crying. But since they had to take a relative to the hospital, her mother told her that she would talk to after returning from the hospital. But by the time they returned, she had taken the extreme step by hanging herself inside the house.
