The Mumbai Police Crime Branch is investigating the suicide of a student at IIT Bombay by analysing campus and examination hall CCTV footage to reconstruct his final movements. The student reportedly left the exam hall after an invigilator intervened over alleged malpractice and went directly to his hostel room. The incident has triggered student demonstrations demanding fair procedures and counselling support, while faculty members remain divided over action taken against the professor. Meanwhile, the victim’s family has raised allegations of harassment. The institute administration is holding discussions with students and faculty to address campus concerns.
