However, when the girl raised an alarm, he fled the scene. Other students on the campus rushed to the spot and informed the girl’s parents. Following a complaint by the parents against the attempted sexual assault on the minor girl, the Visakhapatnam City Police registered a case at the Duvvada PS and are investigating.

Woman ends life
