The girl from a village in the Jalalabad police station area is a student of Swami Shukdevanand Postgraduate College, run by Mumukshu Ashram of Chinmayanand.

The girl”s father said that he used to bring his daughter to the college once in a week or fortnight and used to wait outside till classes ended.
