The suspects in the sexual assault case at anna university were found guilty by a chennai Mahila Court.  On Wednesday, the court declared that Gnanasekaran's accusations were all proven.
 
Around 8 p.m. on december 23 of last year, Gnanasekaran, a Kottur resident who operated a biryani stand close to the college, is accused of breaking into the university's grounds, assaulting a male buddy, and sexually abusing a female student in a private setting. He allegedly recorded the encounter on camera and blackmailed the two, according to the authorities. Later, the Greater chennai police detained him and imprisoned him.

Gnanasekaran had already petitioned to be released from the case, arguing that his arrest was based on suspicion and that there was no proof against him.  The court heard arguments from both parties after tamil Nadu police filed a counterpetition.

A Special Investigation Team (SIT) was established to look into the matter at the direction of the madras High Court.  Later, the Mahila court received a chargesheet from the SIT. Now, he has asked for a lighter sentence, pointing to his mother's ailing condition.  On june 2, the court will determine the appropriate sentence.
