KOLKATA: The Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (IIM-C, pic) has allowed a second-year student, who was arrested earlier this month on charges of rape and is currently out on bail, to resume attending classes from Monday, an institute official said.
The decision was taken at a meeting of the institute’s academic council held on Friday (25 July), following a formal request from the 26-year-old student to continue his studies. He was arrested on 12 July for allegedly raping a woman inside the IIM-C Lake View hostel and was released on bail last week. However, the council has denied his plea to return to hostel accommodation, citing the ongoing police investigation.
