The victim, a 2nd-year college student, returned home to find her sister unconscious on the premises and bleeding from her private parts. The family informed the police, who rushed the woman to the district hospital, where doctors declared her brought dead. The post-mortem report confirmed rape and death due to excessive bleeding due to shock and hemorrhage.
Police said Gautham continued to rape the victim despite her resistance. However, as she started bleeding from her private parts, he panicked and ran away.
