NDTV yesterday reported
Girl commits suicide after humiliation?
In the report NDTV claim
Then a school girl, Ashwini, committed suicide. She was publicly humiliated by suspected Bajrang Dal men for being friends with a Muslim man, Salim.
The group had dragged her to a police station, summoned her parents and forced Salim to write a letter of apology.
Ashwini was harassed before the police, but the men have not been arrested yet.
Salim has been taken into police custody, now charged with possible rape of a minor. For the saffron police, women might seem the soft target but it goes beyond that.
Daughter of a Kerala CPM MLA, who was pulled out of a bus and attacked, made no secret of what her attackers had told her.
''They told me you are a Hindu, why do you want speak to Muslims?''
Two cases in a row -- one leading to the death of a minor girl.
Now lets analyses some of facts
1. First of all doesn't it look at all suspicious on why Sixteen year old girl, a student of class ninth at the Aikala High School in Kinnigoli had gone to Maroor near Moodabidri in a bus to meet Saleem, a conductor-cum owner of the bus?
2. NDTV, Nowhere says how they came to the conclusion that those activists were "suspected" BD Members? Did they should slogans? Did they show them their BD iCard?
3. NDTV report says she was dragged to police station! Why not simply taken to police station? How can a person be dragged to police station? Actually the word was purposefully used to give a more harrowing effect!
4. NDTV Conveniently omitted the fact that on the complaint of the girl's father, a case has been registered against Saleem under Section 376 and 305 of the IPC for luring and raping the girl. Why did father register the complain? was she running away with him? This was reported in Indian Express
5. How was girl harassed in front of police?
6. And most outrageous of NDTV clubbing this incident with another incident in MLA's girl was harassed without naming the actual culprits behind the CPM MLA's daughters case. In that case, it was DYFI(Youth front of CPM) was involved!
A Mangalore police spokesperson said on phone that
according to the parents of the girl, she had told them that she was raped by Saleem on Tuesday. The public saw this girl and her friend with Saleem and his friend. Since the girl was in school uniform, they got suspicious why she was not in school and informed the Moodabidri police. The four were let off after questioning but now Saleem has been arrested and charged with rape and abetment to suicide following a complaint by the girl’s father.
