- A second-year postgraduate trainee doctor spent her night just like any other night. She had dinner with her juniors and decided to go take some rest at 2 am, early morning.
- Due to a lack of rest space in the hospital, the doctor decided to go rest in the seminar hall, considering it safe to rest.
- Cut to next morning when her body was discovered semi-nude inside a seminar hall on August 9, after she had been on duty the previous night.
- Her father expressed grave concerns, stating that there were clear indications of rape and that the hospital was delaying the investigation.
