The investigation team got the print from an internet cafe at Palarivattom in Kochi. This was prepared to produce in the interview of guest lecturer at Attappady Government College.

Vidya had given a statement to the police that she tore up the certificate at Attappady pass after the teacher who conducted the interview raised suspicions over the phone. Vidya had also told the investigation team that the fake certificate was made on the phone.

Its print was found from a cafe in Palarivattom with the help of Google. The police said that Vidya took the copy of her research materials and binding from here. The investigation team recorded the statement of the cafe operator. The examination was with the help of a cyber expert from the district police. The police also said Vidya produced two fake certificates at Attappady College.

When examined Vidya's phone, we found evidence of attaching a fake certificate, but due to the oldness, no other information was found.
