Gang Rape by Indian Army in front of husband at Indo-Bhutan border
LinkGang Rape by Indian Army in front of husband at Indo-Bhutan border
Posted by Justicia On September - 18 – 2011
In a heinous incident, not new to the rural North East India, a woman from rural Kokrajhar district near the Indo- Bhutan border was allegedly gang raped by Jawans of SSB on the night of 10th September.
As per reports, a deaf and mute 35 year old woman Deobari Basumatary, wife of Amal Basumatary was gang raped at night in front of her husband by the SSB Jawans. The incident happened at village No.1 Sonapur under Bismuri Police in the Kokrajhar district of Assam.
According to Amal Basumatary, husband of the victim, a group of SSB Jawans forcefully entered their house at around 11.30 pm, manhandled him and raped his wife in front of him. Later they dragged her to a nearby place and repeatedly raped her one after another.
The victim, Deobari Basumatary, her husband and the villagers, including theGaonbura, came to Bismuri to file an FIR against the SSB Jawans on 11th September.
Noted human rights organization Borosa Foundation for Peace, Democracy and Human Rights have taken up the matter and have made a complaint to the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) about the matter. In a press release issued by the organization, they have stated that “these incidents have exposed an ugly anti-people attitude of some rowdy and indiscipline Jawans involved in the crimes who are otherwise deployed to help in protecting lives and properties of the innocent people and maintain law and order in the trouble torn region”. Condemning the incident, the organization stated that these are clear examples of Human Rights violation and because no appropriate actions was taken so far to punish the culprits involved in previous incidents, the crimes have been repeated again and again in the district.
Mentionable that some months back, one Manek Goyary of village Tharaibari of Choraikola was also reportedly raped by six 15 Dogra regiment stationed at Adabri on 20th April, 2011. An FIR was lodged at Kokrajhar police station but to no effect.
The incident has once again put a question mark over the functioning of the Indian Army in the north eastern region and the Armed Forces Special Power Act (AFSPA) which is active in the region in spite of stiff resentment by the people of the region.

Why do we live in such a sick society...
"The capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them" - Lenin
"The modern proletarian class doesn't carry out its struggle according to a plan set out in some book or theory; the modern workers' struggle is a part of history, a part of social progress, and in the middle of history, in the middle of progress, in the middle of the fight, we learn how we must fight..." - Rosa Luxemburg
Cliche quotes, but sums up my revolutionary beliefs. Fuck your long boring reformist theories and fuck waiting for a revolution, I'm gonna buy me some land and start a self-sufficient Commune, and it's gonna kick ass, and it's gonna have cute as fuck rabbits, and chickens, and solar panels, and black jack, and all of you are fucking invited.
Well I was about to go to sleep but now I'm pissed off and deeply saddened...

The word can be changed to mute.

You are entering the vicinity of an area adjacent to a location. The kind of place where there might be a monster, or some kind of weird mirror...
This is not an isolated incident. Soldiers belonging to the Indian army are some of the worst human rights violators out there. I remember seeing a "torture tape" where they made young boys strip naked and make them run around fields, piggy backing one another. Not to mention, in kashmir, they go around raping brides on their wedding day.
yes. that description of "mute" has no place on revleft. OP in the future please edit news reports to not be so blatantly discriminatory.
I must say, it is immensely saddening that this is the most we can do for this woman. There was recently a woman from Kashmir who reported something like this, I can only fear how widely unreported these kinds of atrocities are.
