The entire incident came to light on Sunday morning when the girls did not reach for breakfast. After this, there was a stir and the police was immediately informed.

How did the matter come to light?

But the next day, that is, on Sunday morning, when breakfast time came, the five girls did not come. When they were searched for, the hostel rooms were found empty.

Police formed a special investigation team

District Superintendent of Police (SP) Nivedita Naidu said that a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has been formed to search for the girls. The team has immediately started searching the area. Police deployment has been increased at the bus stand, railway station and surrounding areas. Apart from this, CCTV footage is also being scanned.

During the investigation, the police found a note. In this letter, a girl has written that "I want to become something, I want to earn and eat, that's why I am leaving."

Families allege negligence

The families of the missing girls have made serious allegations against the hostel management. They say that the hostel gate was broken and there was no boundary wall. They also claimed that the CCTV cameras installed in the hostel were not working for a long time. The family members allege that if there were proper security arrangements in the hostel, this incident would not have happened.
