Massive protests broke out at SR Gudlavalleru Engineering College in Andhra Pradesh's Krishna district on Thursday after a hidden camera was found in the washroom of a girls hostel.

Dozens of female students in the dormitory chanted slogans “We want justice” and demanded that the authorities take action against the defendants and ensure their safety on campus.

Meanwhile, state police said they identified the accused in the case as Vijay.

Police said Vijay was a student of the same college.

His laptop was confiscated and nearly 300 obscene videos were found, which police suspect he sold to other students.

There is no information yet on whether Vijay has been arrested.

On August 9, a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata, India, was raped and murdered, triggering large-scale protests across the country.
