Chennai: Abdul Lateef, father of Fathima Latheef, an Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT-M) student who committed suicide on November 9, said on Saturday he had submitted all the documents in his possession to the Tamil Nadu police.
Fathima Latheef, 19, a first-year MA Humanities and Development Studies student had ended her life by hanging from a ceiling fan in her hostel room, allegedly for religious biases. Fathima was a class topper at IIT-M.
While speaking to reporters, Abdul Latheef said that no other student should suffer the fate that his daughter Fathima had suffered.
He said his daughter wanted to study in IIT-M and he was also comfortable in sending her to Chennai for studies.
On Saturday morning the Central Crime Branch of Tamil Nadu police had enquired with Abdul Latheef for a couple of hours here.
While no suicide note was found in Fathima’s room, a note in her mobile phone had mentioned some faculty names as the cause of her death.
