Endi Vay Idi.... Schoolgirl Raped, Murdered On Tmc 'court Order'

[Spartan]

A schoolgirl belonging to a scheduled caste community was allegedly gang-raped and murdered soon after she protested against the humiliation of her family at a kangaroo court convened by Trinamool councilor Namita Ray in Jalpaiguri's Dhupguri late on Monday.

Namita allegedly spat on the ground and asked her to lick it. This triggered a melee between relatives of the schoolgirl and Trinamool supporters. She went missing after that and her nude body was found beside railway tracks on Tuesday morning. Her head had been nearly chopped in half. Her jeans and Tee-shirt lay a few metres away, undamaged, as if they had been flung there.

The victim's father had an old dispute with Trinamool supporter Anil Burman on the mode of payment for using a power tiller for cultivating their land. They live in Madhyapara, a rural patch in Dhupguri municipality. At Burman's behest, local councillor Namita Ray convened the kangaroo court to "settle" the dispute. The salishi sabha was held in front of Trinamool leader Saraswasti Ray's home. The victim's family alleges that they were dragged there by Burman.

Namita and Chandrakanta were among those who managed the proceedings and fined the girl's father Rs 40,000, and threatened to burn his house unless the family quit the village within a month, says the complaint. The family was assaulted and abused, triggering a spirited protest by the schoolgirl, who reminded the gathering that what they were doing was illegal. At this, Namita allegedly spat on the ground and asked her to lick it. This infuriated the girl further. Chaos broke out and she went missing. Her body was found 2km away.

The victim's uncle said: "She protested when her father, my brother-in-law, was beaten up. They threatened her, but she continued to challenge them. If she committed suicide, why was she without clothes? I think they raped and killed her." Jalpaiguri SP Kunal Agarwal said two suspects have been arrested and handed over to GRP, which is investigating the case.

 

This incident brings more shame to the state after back-to-back complaints of sexual assault at Visva-Bharati and Jadavpur University last week and the gang-rape of a tribal girl ordered by a kangaroo court in Birbhum in January this year.
