Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Shibu Prasad Hazra, who was “missing” after women of Sandeshkhali alleged systemic rape and sexual assault, was arrested on Saturday
Women in several areas in Sandeshkhali of North 24 Parganas district in West Bengal have been protesting, demanding the arrest of TMC leader Sheikh Shahjahan and others.
The NCW chair's charge came shortly after the West Bengal police used a report by a mainstream media channel to dismiss the allegations of the victims.
The West Bengal police has been accused by women residents of Sandeshkhali of aiding Trinamool Congress goons and remaining a mute spectator to the harassment meted out by them.
Both Mollah and Sardar are accused of direct involvement in the violent attack that targeted the probe agency team during a raid on the residence of Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Shahjahan Sheikh.
Gora reportedly shoved the victim into a nearby bush and raped her at knifepoint. He then thrashed the woman, tied her hands with a cloth and dumped her into a nearby pond.
