Divya’s parents Srinivas and Rukmini Devi said they were sure that it was murder. They alleged that Divya’s three hostelmates were absconding.
“We came to know that non-local students are treated badly by seniors at the Jaslok hospital.We strongly suspect that she was murdered,” said Divya’s aunt S. Arunasree.
Divya’s relatives suspect that her seniors wreaked vengeance on her. “Divya was straightforward. Somebody must have done it, and the hospital is trying to hide it,” said Arunashree.
Divya’s parents alleged that Jaslok authorities interfered with the scene of the offence. “The body was immediately removed from the room before our people reached there. They wanted to finish all procedures in a jiffy and close the matter as a suicide,” the parents said.
Hospital sources informed Divya’s family that her room door was not locked. The parents alleged that the hospital authorities were not ready to cooperate with them initially.
“She was never depressed. She struggled a lot to become a doctor as her parents were poor. She used to fund her education by taking tuitions,” said a relative. Her funeral took place on Sunday.
