SHRC Issues Notice To Tirunelveli Collector, city police commissioner over NEET Centre assault matter

Meanwhile, according to police sources, the accused Ahmed beaten up the male students when he saw one of them sleeping during the morning classes. He threw slippers at the female students because one of them had kept the shoes outside the classroom, at some unknown place other than the designated area for keeping shoes.

After the video of the assault was released, State Human Rights Commission (SHRC) member Kannadasan visited the coaching centre to investigate the entire matter. On this, the SHRC has issued a notice to the Tirunelveli Collector and the city Police Commissioner and sought a detailed report within six weeks.

As per the DTNext Media news report, the SHRC has asked the collector to submit a report on the licence of the private NEET coaching centre, stating that the centre was also managing a hostel for 52 female students without a valid licence.

The incident reportedly took place in October this year, but only it came to light after several students and a staff member of the private NEET coaching centre filed a complaint against Ahmed. Currently, he is said to be absconding due to fear of arrest.
