"Our life is continuously under threat," they claimed, adding the posters were pasted across the campus to "provoke ill-feeling and hatred against us".
The posters having nine names including that of the complainants read, "Nine accused refused lie detector test. They have delayed investigation by nine months. What are they hiding?" they said.
