SURI: A 17-year-old tribalgirl was stripped, beaten and forced to walk nude for 8km across three villages with hundreds of men molesting her all the way and taking videos on their mobiles. It was a shocking reminder of the Guwahati incident in November 2007 when a teenager was stripped and molested by a mob during an ethnic clash. An MMS clipping of the Birbhum girls ordeal is now doing the rounds under the name ‘Adibasi girl’. And it is this footage that is finally getting the victim some justice.
According to sources, the girls fault was that she loved a boy from another community. Police were shocked to learn that the panchayats and other local bodies knew of the incident but hadn’t bothered to inform the administration. The incident happened four months ago but the girl was too traumatized to go to the authorities. It is only when the administration came to know of the MMS that police swung into action on their own and arrested five of the culprits on Sunday.
**Some frames in the video are, too, horrific to watch. The girl has a dazed, dead look on her face as she staggers along dusty dirt tracks. A jeering crowd of tribals follows her, beating drums and thrashing her with sticks whenever she stops. Little boys throw stones at her. She takes the blows, defenceless, as she uses her arms in a futile attempt to protect her honour. Men pounce on her, pull her arms apart and molest her amid laughter as the drums beat up a frenzy. **
This torture went on for hours in broad daylight, in the scorching heat of April. The footage shows just 11 minutes of it. On Saturday, some journalists showed the clipping to SP Humayun Kabir and DM Saumitra Mohan demanding why they were not taking any action.
reading this and the other news about taliban murdering a pregnant woman makes me wonder what is this world coming to… what kind of animals can do these things :bummer:
re: Tribal girl stripped over 'affair', molested by hundreds in Bengal
cant believe it can be true. I doubt the news. One thing i noticed in all such news is the boy/man is missing from the scene which makes me think that all such news are fake n self made stories.

[note]In fairness, this wasn’t done by Taliban which is the impression you gave w/o posting the proper thread title & omitting article’s heading. I corrected that. Try not to mislead. Thanks.[/note]
Re: Tribal girl stripped over 'affair', molested by hundreds in Bengal
Hey thanks for fixing the title etc...
no intention on my part to 'mislead' anyone that taliban did this! just comparing the two unfortunate pieces of news... i don't think anyone got the wrong idea after reading the article anyway will format it in a better way next time...

that's the best part of this horrid news. this girl will get justice for what she went through. using the media for good, hopefully that footage of her being abused by jerks will be shown all over the country

yes, show her being humiliated on star news, dont forget to spice it up.
oh may be put in some ISI masala behind this. ISI was responsible for this...
Re: Tribal girl stripped over ‘affair’, molested by hundreds in Bengal
she’s already been humiliated by what happened to her. this way the whole country would demand justice for her, hopefully she’ll have that countrywide support. the jerks will be tortured
oh and the bold part,
i didn’t even bring up pakistan or isi but somehow you squeezed it in. sigh you’re so smart, go ahead inform the indian media about your brilliant idea:chai:
