Kavya Poojari, a tenth standard student of Alva's School, was found hanging in her hostel room on June 20. Video footage of Kavya beings taken to the hospital admitted in the ICU and then taken to the mortuary has led to many questions.

The footage has shown that Kavya's body was brought to the hospital which was just half-a-kilometer away from the hostel. 

She is brought to the hospital at 7.41 pm on June 20, but the doctors say that she is dead at 7.45 and the doctors give a final confirmation about her death at 8 pm. he body is being seen taken to the mortuary at 8.06 pm.

Surprisingly, at the same time, her parent's can be seen sitting outside the hospital. Kavya's body was shown to them only after it was taken to the mortuary.

Though according to the law, the person found hanging can be taken to the hospital (as there is a chance of saving the person's life). Thus, the school authority cannot be blamed for taking the body to the hospital, but surely it is surprising that her body was not shown to the parents before taking it to the mortuary when parents were sitting outside the hospital. Only after the body was shifted to the mortuary, the news of her death was announced to the parents.

The school authorities have said that the body couldn't be kept in the hospital room after being declared dead, so it was shifted to the mortuary.

However, parents of Kavya have cried foul and said that it there is no chance that their daughter had committed suicide. The mother has demanded a probe on Praveen, the physical education teacher.

Kavya had made a call to her parents a day before her death and had told them that she had been called for practice (Badminton) at 4.15 am. But as the chief of the institute had clarified that no activity in the school starts before 6 am, the mother has questioned, why was her daughter called at 4.15 am.

In fact, Kavya was studying in the Kateel Government School and seeing her talent in the badminton, Praveen, the physical education teacher at Alva's School, convinced Kavya's parents to get her admission in the Alva's School as it provides training for the sportspersons. Kavya got admissions at Alva's School in June this year under the sports quota. Within days of her joining, she was found dead in her hostel room.

The earlier footage and photos had shown Kavya attending the practice, attending classes and going back to the hostel in the school bus. But there are no footages or photos  of what happened next. When the body was taken to the hospital from hostel etc. there are no proofs regarding this.

However, one of the TV channels (TV9 Kannada) telecasted the footage of Kavya being taken inside the hospital and her body being taken to the mortuary. 

Here are the photos from the earlier footage:
