A second-year MBA student at IIM Calcutta was arrested after a woman alleged rape inside the boys’ hostel. She claimed she was drugged with spiked pizza and water, lost consciousness, and woke up realizing she had been sexually assaulted. The FIR was filed under multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. However, the woman’s father later denied the allegations, stating she fell from an auto-rickshaw and was fine. Police are investigating the contradictory claims and have seized evidence, including the accused’s phone and clothing. The institute has not commented officially but is cooperating with authorities. The accused remains in custody as the investigation continues. (PC: Hindustan Times & India Today)
