Malappuram Superintendent of Police Sujit Das quoted local residents as saying that the accused was the victim’s senior in the school and used to chase her.

Last year, her father lodged a police complaint and the police let him off with a warning. Vineesh was also questioned once on charges of alleged drug abuse in the school and the victim’s relatives opposed her acquaintance, the police officer said. He is believed to have attacked her because she was disapproving of his romantic advances.
