Raudha’s classmates – who live in the same building, discovered the body just an hour before. “We primarily suspect it is a suicide case. However, we can't come to any conclusion until we get the autopsy report,” said Zillur Rahman, officer-in-charge of Shah Makhdum Police Station.

Mahmuda Begum, superintendent of the female hostel, said Raudha “always looked happy” and “it is hard to believe she would commit suicide.” The late model posted regularly on her Instagram, sharing professional photos and sketches of herself with her 31 thousand followers. For her, modelling was a hobby rather than a career and she ultimately prioritised her desire to become a doctor over the fashion industry.
“Modelling is a hobby rather than a career for me, since I’m studying to become a doctor,” she told Vogue India when they photographed her last year, selecting six models from six nations of the Indian subcontinent to appear on their cover. “I’ve never been so bold as to take part in any big pageant before this.”
Raudha also wanted to be an environmentalist when she was younger and said the only advertising campaign she had featured in before this one was one for the environmental services when she was just 14. “Becoming a doctor to help people has always been my dream,” she said. “It was a small environmental campaign for our national television network, encouraging people to ban plastic bags in favour of eco-friendly alternatives.”
The student had become known for her striking blue eyes and once posted a shoot which she called the “Maldivian Girl with Aqua Blue Eyes.”
