Hundreds of students came out on the campus on Saturday night after talks with the authorities apparently failed. Several social media posts are doing the rounds claiming that the university authorities were trying to cover up the incident.

Police denied any incident of death, injury or attempt to suicide in the aftermath of the video leak. “It's a matter of a video being shot by a girl student & circulated. FIR has been registered in the matter and the accused student has been arrested. No death reported related to this incident. As per medical records, no attempt (to commit suicide) reported,” Mohali SSP Vivek Soni said.

An unverified video of the girl who made the videos and leaked them is also going viral where she confessed her crime. Some insiders claimed the accused was demanding money from the girls.
