Police mount large-scale searches across the hostel to locate any other devices.

Overview

  • Police identified the suspects as employee Neelukumari (Neelu) Gupta, 22, and her boyfriend Santhosh, 25, who was arrested in Bengaluru.
  • Over 200 personnel and 10 search teams combed nine occupied blocks of the Vidiyal Residency campus to check for additional cameras.
