Chennai: Four persons have been detained in connection with the suicide case of three girls in Tamil Nadu yesterday. “Four people are being interrogated as of now and cases of cheating, extortion and abetting suicide are registered against them. Four teams have been set up to secure the rest,” said Villupuram collector Lakshmi.

Citing ‘torture’ by the management, the girls hoped that their suicide would finally force the authorities to take action against the college chairperson.  Representation pic/thinkstock
