WORKPLACES: SAFE NO LONGER?????

Reposing dollops of faith in one's professional or then should I say work place colleagues and moving around with them at all hours of the day has become the norm rather than the exception in India's metropolitan cities; but can you always take your colleagues at face value and repose your trust in them, certainly not if the following incident is any yardstick or measure to go by......


A middle aged woman was sexually assaulted (raped) by two of her work place or office colleagues after the two laced a soft drink offered to her with sedatives.......

The woman in question a resident of the national capital's Madhu Vihar area in a complaint to the police alleged that two of her colleagues Ravindra and Lokendra repeatedly raped her, with two more male colleagues Rakesh and Jai Singh goading them on without actively participating in the demeaning and grotesque act.....

All the four accused are colleagues of the victim and gainfully employed with her in the same company/private concern in neighbouring Uttar Pradesh's Gautam Buddha Nagar.....

The events unfolded in the following manner late on Wednesday night; the four accused firstly offered the victim a lift in their car and offered her a sedative laced/laden cold drink en route..........

They then drove the car to a secluded and deserted where two of them deigned to force themselves on the semi conscious victim and repeatedly sexually assault her......

The victim was found by residents of the national capitals Dilshad Garden area very late on Wednesday night/early Thursday morning and they in turn informed the local police station........

The victim was then rushed to a nearby medical facility and the police recorded her statement in which she named the four accused and squarely laid the blame for her pitiable predicament at their doorstep........

A detailed medical examination performed on the victim at the very same medical facility has conclusively established the incidence of rape and the local cops have launched a massive manhunt to nab the four culprits who still remain at large........

Wither trust, friendship, confidence in each other, ideals, values, morals, men-women equations and age old workplace ethics........
