Here is the latest update on the Lakhimpur outrage, that has forced thousands of Assamese, mostly women and children to take to the streets in an effort to ensure that the government hears their collective plea this time around at least and belatedly puts in place an efficacious security apparatus that guarantees the safety and security of both women and children.......
Just to jog your memories, a 31 year old woman who also happened to be the mother of a six year old daughter was gang raped and brutalised by four demons in a rapidly moving vehicle, who subsequently threw her out of the speeding vehicle on the roadside unconscious and copiously bleeding from her numerous injuries........
In an ironical twist to the proceedings, the victim was thrown out of the vehicle barely hundred metres or so away from Lakhimpur's most prominent police station and passersby solicited the ambulance that rushed her to the government hospital where she succumbed to her grievous and life threatening head injuries after braving the odds for almost two fateful days.......
Seven days on, both the Assam government and it's faithful police force have precious little to show for their efforts apart from the dubious facts that they have thus far apprehended one person who is slated to be a distant cousin of the victim and that the post mortem report submitted by a team of captive doctors has failed to find any external evidence of rape.......
What they have failed to mention are the facts that three culprits still remain at large, their woeful failure to either identify and apprehend the driver of the "wanted" vehicle as well as it's make and registration number; while the three term chief minister of Assam Tarun Gogoi has done precious little apart from constituting a five member Special Investigation/ive Team that will examine all aspects and angles of this horrendous crime and submit it's report to the government within thirty days.........
Yes, the chief minister has also mouthed the now cliched and familiar platitudes, homilies and ditties about his government being committed to the noble cause of ensuring the safety and security of all Assamese women and children, but conveniently omitted the fact that the team of captive doctors has also badly botched up the post mortem and failed to conclusively establish the precise reason for the victim's untimely demise even though seven days have elapsed since the hapless victim met her maker.......
As far as the victim's family is concerned, they continue to clutch on to stray crumbs of comfort and fervently hope and pray that the culprits will be brought to book and that the full and requisite force of the law will be brought down upon them in all it's collective might...........
