Delhi Police questions 2 suspects in JNU violence case, forensic experts try to retrieve data from server

Two more suspects were questioned by Delhi Police's Crime Branch on Tuesday in connection with the January 5 violence on JNU campus while forensic experts spent the day trying to retrieve related data from the server, officials said.

According to police, both Sucheta Talukdar and Priya Ranjan were questioned for two hours each in connection with the attack by a masked mob on January 5.

The four persons who were injured in the attack were also examined.

"I gave a one-and-a-half page statement to the police. They asked me about the January 5 incident, where I was that day, details of students injured and whether I could identify anyone else. I was shown my photo (one that the police had released in the press conference last week)," Talukdar said.

Sources said she told police that the photo was too blurred.

Ranjan, a BA third-year student from School of Language, Literature and Culture Studies, said "I gave a one-page statement to police about my whereabouts on that day."
Deepa Verma, director of Forensic Science Laboratory, said, "The data is voluminous and the work is ongoing. After the data is submitted to the lab, it will be seen what has to be retrieved and what is already available."
