When the police asked CMCH Dean A. Nirmala regarding the incident, she said that he stopped attending the hospital from August 6. As he was absent for many days, the hospital administration informed his father regarding the issue, The Hindu reports.
Getting the information, his father tried to contact him, but the phone was unreachable. Then his father came to Coimbatore on Thursday morning and visited the lodge where he found that his son was dead.
Later, the police reached the spot and shifted his body to the CMCH mortuary for post-mortem. The deceased father filed a complaint and the case was registered under Section 174 (police to enquire and report on suicide, etc.) of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
Nirmala claimed that the department head had informed her that the student was depressed and hadn't visited the hospital in over a week. The HoD attempted to reach the student over the phone but was unsuccessful. The HoD then informed the student's father, who then travelled to Coimbatore, she claimed.
