A suicide note purportedly written by the victim of the sexual assault blamed two other persons, including the school principal, for not acting on her complaint, said the police.
Meanwhile, the police reportedly gathered evidence of the teacher sending the girl obscene messages and their conversation from her mobile phone. The girl’s body was sent to a government hospital for postmortem and the parents and relatives refused to accept the body as they demanded the arrest of the school head, the police said.
Over 100 people comprising representatives of students’ and women’s organizations, SDPI and Thanthai Periyar Dravidar Kazhakam gathered in front of the girl’s house demanding action against the school management and also the two named in the suicide note, police said.
