“Why would she go to the college roof during working hours? It is a pre-planned murder. She was killed in a pre-planned manner,” alleged her brother.
Speaking to OTV, Barsha’s brother said, “On June 11, she called our mother and informed that her HOD was angry with her. She asked our mother to speak to her HOD and pacify her. However, the HOD refused to talk to my mother and instead threw away Barsha’s phone. Just half an hour later, we received a call that Barsha had fallen from the roof.”
“However, we suspect my sister was pushed from the roof. Even as she was admitted to the hospital and died, the college authorities didn't even come to see her,” he added.
“Shockingly, they have not even lodged an FIR or met our parents to inform how she fell, or what actually had happened. Barsha was on duty when this happened, so, it is the moral responsibility of the college authority to at least inform her family members. But, they are least bothered even after she died,” alleged Barsha’s sister.
“We are trying to reach out to the college authorities, but no one is ready to listen to us. Finally, we lodged an FIR with the Tomando police. We hold the college authorities and HOD madam accountable for our sister’s death,” she added.
