Kumar Rajiv Nayan
Ara : A teenage girl was gangraped by some youth at a village under Shahpur police station (PS) in Bhojpur District in South Bihar on March 30, 2021, when she had gone to the field to attend call of nature. An FIR was lodged with Shahpur PS in this connection after intervention of SDPO Shyam Kishore Ranjan and DSP Seema Kumari as the police had earlier refused to lodge an FIR saying it was just a case of eve-teasing.
The girl had gone to the field when some youth came and forcibly took her to a secluded place where they gangraped her and escaped. The girl somehow reached home and narrated her ordeal to her family members. Her family members informed the police about the incident but the police did not turn up. Then they reached police station but police refused to lodge an FIR saying that it was just eve-teasing.
On getting information, RJD MLA Rahul Tiwari reached Shahpur police station and expressed his anguish over working of police.The probationer DSP got involved in an argument with him the matter but was resolved after the timely arrival of SDPO Shyam Kishore Ranjan and DSP Seema Kumari and an FIR was finally lodged. Police are, however, yet to arrest any accused.
