Srimathi, daughter of Ramalingam from Periyanesalur in the Cuddalore district, was studying in the Kaniyamoor Private Higher Secondary School near Chinnasalem. In this case, the school administration informed the parents in the early morning of the 13th that the student fell down from the 3rd floor of the hostel premises and was taken to the hospital. 

Within 30 minutes, the student Srimathi was dead. After that, the parents went to the hospital with their relatives and saw the body of the student. They started protesting in front of the hospital in Kallakurichi that afternoon, saying that 'our daughter did not commit suicide. She was murdered'.

The next day the protest got stronger, and they blocked the road. Police came to the spot and dispersed the crowd. In this case, the autopsy report was released on the 16th. The student's parents refused to accept it, claiming it was a fake report and once again staged a protest at the Kallakurichi four-way junction.

Outside the school, on the national highway between Kallakurichi-Chinnasalem, while the protest group was engaged in a tug-of-war with the police, another gang entered the back of the school and set fire to the vehicles with kerosene and diesel and looted the property. 

Many students' original mark sheets and other major certificates were burnt. As the fire spread rapidly inside the school premises, the fire engine that came to extinguish the fire was also turned away without being allowed to enter.

On Monday, two private school teachers were detained on suspicion of aiding suicide. J Krithiga, a mathematics teacher who also serves as the school's dormitory warden, and P Haripriya, a chemistry teacher, were detained after the case was reported under section 174 (1) of the CrPC and article 306 of the ICP. The school's correspondent C Ravikumar, secretary R Shanthi, and principal S Siva Sankaran had already been detained by police.
