- Four individuals in judicial custody are named: prime accused Monojit Mishra, students Zaib Ahmed and Pramit Mukherjee, and college security guard Pinaki Banerjee.
- Investigators report a DNA match tying Mishra to samples from the survivor’s clothing, CCTV showing the victim being dragged and held, and obscene clips recovered from phones with voices matched by forensic analysis.
- The charges invoke multiple Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita provisions including gang rape, wrongful confinement, kidnapping-related offences, criminal conspiracy, and destruction of evidence, along with voyeurism and IT Act sections.
- The assault is alleged to have occurred on June 25 inside the guard’s room at South Calcutta Law College, with the guard accused of facilitating access; the public prosecutor described the case as fit for a custody trial.
