This incident became apparent when Human Rights Commission team reached the school on Tuesday to examine the reports filed by the girl's family regarding the suicidal case.

Earlier in November 2021, a class 12 student hanged herself in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.

The 17-year-old minor girl committed this self-destruction incident at her home in the RS Puram area, Coimbatore when her parents were not present at their residence. The minor girl also left a suicide letter where she mentioned the names of three people.
The deceased girl's father claimed that no action was taken by the concerned authority of the school against the accused named Mithun Chakravarthy who had been continuously harassing his daughter.
Later, the accused educator was detained by the police, and charges were framed under the Indian Penal Code section 306 as well as under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act section 9L r/w section 20
