The next morning, her parents got the call from the College that their daughter is sick and they should come immediately. When they reached there, they were told that Moumita committed a suicide. They were not even allowed to see the body of their own daughter. After the postpartum reports came out, it was found that she got gang raped and then she was murdered. 150 grams of semen was found inside her body. (Where, one man can only have up to 10-15 grams. Hence, it is assumed that it was a gang rape.) Her body was found semi-naked and her legs were at a 90 degree angle. The whole body was injured and her specs were crushed into her eyes.
