Rakeeb Hussain for The Hindustan Times reports:
Shiekh Motaleb, who anyhow managed to rescue his
sister Mossamat Akhera Bibi and admit her to the
Tamluk sub-divisional hospital in East Midnapore on
Saturday, said: My sister was pregnant and couldnt
run away when the armed CPM cadres stormed inside
Satengabari village. She was severally beaten up and
then raped by the cadres. Her two teenage daughters
Soma Khatoon and Anwara Khatoon too have been raped
and then taken away.
Nirmalya Bannerjee for the Times News Network has
these quotes
It was about 8 pm last Tuesday (a day after the
final onslaught from Khejuri was launched). My husband
was not at home. I was in bed with two teenage
daughters when five men barged in.
About 25 others stood guard outside. They pulled me by
the hair and one of them raped me. Our two daughters
were also pulled out and raped by four people. They
hit me with rifle butts. She lay dazed in her house
for a day before her nephew brought her to the
Nandigram block hospital. Later, she was shifted to
Tamluk. I still dont know what has happened to my
two daughters, she said.
Police recorded her statement on Sunday. There is no
visible sign of rape but she is a mother of a number
of children. In such cases, rape is difficult to
confirm by physical verification, often circumstantial
evidence is crucial, said Dr Sudip Gole who carried
out the medical examination on Saturday night.
Where is the moral outrage for the rape of pregnant
Muslim women by Communist cadre in West Bengal ?
