According to police Radha (20) in her death note had stated "I suffered insult in the society. I could not forget my friend. Hence I am leaving this world".

Radha and Rani (both names changed) who were friends from childhood had developed lesbian relationship and had fled home on November four after their parents disapproved their relation.

In the wake of Radha's disappearance, her parents not only lodged a missing complaint with police, but also moved Habeas Corpus petition before the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court.
