Chennai, July 25 (BPNS)

A heavy police contingent is camping at Kezhachery in Tiruvallur district after a Plus two girl student committed suicide at her school hostel room on Monday morning. The student had come to school in the morning and then went back to her hostel room. Even after she was not found in the class even after a couple of hours, school authorities alerted the hostel and on inquiry found that the girl had hanged herself in the hostel room.

It may be recalled that on July 13, a Plus Two girl student jumped off from the hostel room in Kallakurichi which escalated into a major issue. The private school where the girl was studying was vandalized and the people took to the streets thus torching 4 school buses and one police bus. The whole furniture and other materials were destroyed.

With the police drawing flak from all corners over the manner in which it was handled, a heavy police contingent is deployed near the school. Police from other adjacent districts are also been called up to replenish stocks

It may be noted that after the Kallakurichi incident, the state police are on the back foot and not to escalate any violence, many contingents of police have reached the spot.
