BENGALURU: The alumni of National Law School of India University (NLSIU) have criticised the institute for taking action against two members of its sexual harassment inquiry committee. The two are said to have shared with other students of the varsity the ordeal of a survivor in a sexual harassment case.
The said case involved a student from another law college complaining of physical and sexual harassment by a current student at NLSIU. The survivor had called out the name of the accused in a tweet in April. According to the alumni’s open letter to NLSIU, two student facilitators under the Sexual Harassment Inquiry Committee (SHARIC) narrated the details of the incident in an email and in a private FB group to students of the university. The boy’s identity was revealed in the process.
