GUNTUR: The family of Gangireddy Hanimi Reddy (24), the IIT Kharagpur second-year M Tech student who was found hanging in his room on the campus on Wednesday evening, is not ready to accept that he had committed suicide. 


On reaching Kharagpur on Thursday morning, Gangireddy’s elder brother G Venugopal Reddy lodged a complaint with the police. He requested the cops to examine his brother’s call records over the last six months and his internet browsing history from his mobile phone and laptop. He said his brother took notes from the internet and requested sleuths to examine those as well.

Gangireddy hailed from Challagundla in Guntur. His father G Venkata Reddy is a farmer. “We want a thorough probe. When I spoke to him days ago, he sounded absolutely normal. The West Bengal Police or CID should investigate properly and must not try to hush it up,” said Venugopal. At Midnapore Medical College Hospital morgue, the student’s batchmate Abhishek Gupta said, “When we found his room locked from inside, we informed the security who called the police. Cops broke open the door and found him hanging.” 


West Midnapore SP Alok Rajoria said, “We have seized his mobile and laptop and are awaiting the autopsy report.” Meanwhile, a pall of gloom descended on Challagundla, when the body of Hanimi Reddy was brought to his native on Friday.
