The authorities of Cochin University of Science and Technology (Cusat) on Monday said they were yet to receive an official complaint on an allegation of sexual harassment against a member of the varsity Syndicate.
However, the security officer was asked to submit a preliminary report after a media report stated that a student had allegedly beaten up the Syndicate member after the person allegedly tried to sexually harass her on the sidelines of the ‘Sargam’ university union arts fest on March 1.
The security wing has given preliminary feedback stating that they did not come across any such incident, according to the authorities. “We will also collect feedback from the teachers who were in charge of the conduct of the fest,” they said.
