The BJP has made serious allegations against the Mamta Banerjee government in the case of gang rape of a girl in Nadia, West Bengal. BJP has questioned the state government that when the accused performed the last rites of the Nadia gang rape victim, she was alive at that time? The BJP argues that neither the post-mortem of the victim nor the death certificate was issued after the death. In such a situation, the question arises whether the victim was alive at the time of the funeral?
On April 4, a 14-year-old girl was allegedly gang-raped at Hanskhali in Nadia district. After this incident, the politics of the state has heated up. BJP is continuously attacking the Mamta Banerjee government. BJP MLA Srirupa Mitra Choudhary says, “When I asked the victim’s mother whether her daughter was alive, when the accused persons took her to the cremation ground, she fell to the ground.”
The girl’s family has alleged that she was gang-raped on April 4 and cremated in haste by the accused persons without post-mortem and death certificates. A police officer says that no doctor examined the victim, no post-mortem, and no death certificate issued before the ‘last rites’ were performed by the accused. His last rites were performed at an unauthorized crematorium.
The victim was moaning all night
BJP MLA Srirupa Mitra Choudhary said, “The victim was bleeding profusely and was moaning in pain throughout the night. Her parents could not call the doctor or inform the police, as they were all scared and the family was being threatened. The victim was later carried away wrapped in a mat while her father ran after them. He was cremated.”
what does the police say
The police officer says, “Who has confirmed that he died before the cremation? No doctor examined him. There is no death certificate. No postmortem took place. Then how can we say that he died before the last rites.
Even 85-year-old village priest Vishwanath Chakraborty refused to perform the rituals on Thursday morning, saying he was uncertain about the time and nature of death.
CBI reached the spot
Meanwhile, experts from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL), probing the case on the orders of the Calcutta High Court, visited the site where the victim was cremated to collect samples.
A police officer said that the victim was cremated at the official crematorium in the village. There was no cremation in the last one year. After the last rites of the victim, no one else was cremated there.
The forensic officers also visited the houses of Brijgopal Gayali and Prabhakar Poddar, who have already been arrested in the case, to collect samples. Brajgopal is the son of a Trinamool Congress (TMC) panchayat member, while Prabhakar is a friend of Brajgopal.
BJP has constituted its own investigation team
The BJP has constituted a five-member investigative team on Wednesday for internal investigation after the Nadia gang rape case. In which MP Rekha Verma and Uttar Pradesh Minister Baby Rani Maurya and others were involved. The team is expected to submit its report to party chief JP Nadda on Saturday.
TMC’s advice to BJP
TMC leader Kunal Ghosh has already slammed the BJP team saying that the CBI is probing the matter and questioned the need for BJP’s fact-finding team. “It seems that the BJP does not have faith in the CBI as the truth can come out if a fair investigation is conducted,” he said. His investigative team really wants to influence the investigation. What BJP is doing is simple politics, ugly and condemnable.
