Two culprits died owing to mob fury; police vindictive
to Hindus
On August 23, 2012, between 1 and 3 am, a complete
hell pounced on the family of Bapi Sardar, a Hindu invidual inhabiting village:
Chowhari, P.S. Mandirbazar, District: 24 Paraganas (South). A group of dacoits,
consisting 5 men, entered his residence stealthily and got hold of the entire
family (off-the-cuff) in the twinkling of an eye. Bapi’s aged father was mutilated,
Bapi was fastened to a bamboo pole and his wife was gangraped. The entire
family couldn’t get the time to raise an alarm; the attack was so fast.
However, when the dreaded gang was fleeing they
were noticed by neighboring Hindus. They raised an alarm in no time; lots of
people chased them and finally, two members of the gang (both are Islamists) were
caught. They were manhandled by furious people and succumbed to mob thrashing and
died ultimately.
It has come to knowledge, Bapi Sardar belongs to an
affluent family in the village and his wife is known for her beauty in the
vicinity. Moreover, as per local witnesses, the two slain dacoits do belong to
Mallikpur and Baruipur, at a distance of 30 kilometers away from the said
village: Chowhari.
More striking developments were perceived later
on.
Police reached the spot almost an hour afterward but
was found to be more interested to castigate Hindus for the mob fury instead of
carrying out investigations to nab the culprits. Perhaps destruction of a Hindu
family, torture on Hindus and rape of a Hindu housewife do not matter to them
at all!
The aforesaid Hindu housewife has been sent for
medical examination; police, at this point in time, is found to be reluctant to
go on with the official investigation. Local Hindus allege that citing the
necessity of medical reports they are lingering altogether. Hindus contend that
political pressures are preventing police to move further.
Hindus have another fear as well. Taking the
hostile attitude of police into consideration, Hindus apprehend severe police
tortures on them in the coming days. They also assert that the village is
ill-famed for frequent clashed between Hindus and Muslims; local Islamists have
stimulated dacoits to perform the atrocious job.
The entire village is under a tight police
security now. Tension prevails in the village.
