16-yr-old School Girl Gang Raped and Murdered in West Bengal: Public Protests

 

Kakdwip women rally for police action after the gang rape and murder of a 16 yr old school girl

West Bengal, 24 Nov 2015

Three days after a 16-year-old school girl was gang-raped and killed in Kakdwip, a West Bengal district, police finally filed a complaint. The police move came after a public interest litigation was filed before the Calcutta High Court seeking a CID probe, and the victim’s family and locals staged demonstrations and refused to cremate the body accusing the police of refusing to register a rape case despite receiving a complaint.
