As if repeated instances of ordinary menfolk were not enough to make the Indian woman's existence a kind of living hell; here comes an instance of a serving minister and his henchmen contributing their mite towards this menace........
A woman journalist (reporter) employed with a local Kannada New Channel has alleged that the current energy minister D.K. Shivakumar and his cronies made an attempt to outrage her modesty, slander her, cast aspersions on her character by equating her to a sex worker and last but not the least used the choicest epithets to describe "crucial" parts of her anatomy.......
She proved her mettle and underlined the fact that she is not going to let matters lie by filing a police complaint against the said minister and his cronies on Tuesday (11 March 2014)......
A meticulously planned sting operation provided the perfect pretext for the intrepid woman journalist and colleagues meeting the minister at his posh Sadashivanagar area on Monday evening........
Posing as representatives of a multi national London based power company, the said reporter tried to ensnare the minister into committing professional harakiri by extending undue official favours to her; but lo and behold, matters came to a head when the minister and his cronies realised that they were being trapped by the reporter and also belatedly realised that they were being stung by her.........
In the complaint filed by her before the Sadashivanagar police personnel, the woman journalist Shweta Prabhu candidly admitted that she and her two male colleagues met the minister and his cohorts at the pre-ordained hour of 4:30 pm on Monday morning and that the three of them were threatened with dire consequences if they leaked out any information whatsoever about the botched up sting operation........
Matters however did not end with the implied threats, but the minister and his cohorts also resorted to strong arm tactics and roughed up the woman journalist and her male colleagues in an effort to intimidate and brow beat them into submission........
The woman journalist also alluded to the fact that she was unaware of the names of the men who brutally beat her up but could conclusively identify them if they were paraded before her and her two male colleagues......
Investigating officer Nagalingaiah pointed out the fact that a notice was issued to the said journalist and her male colleagues after endorsing or duly acknowledging the receipt of the complaint filed by them against the minister and his cohorts as the minister had also filed a counter complaint against the trio.........
He also admitted the fact that the Sadashivanagar police was in receipt of a second complaint filed against the minister and his cohorts by one Shreyas (the cameraman who was accompanying Shweta on her mission) alleging that he was also at the receiving end of their ire and that he received bleeding injuries on his person as a result of the brutal assault on him.......
Well, I think you are wise enough to decide whether you want to let such people who do not even know how to respect a woman and treat her with due deference represent you in the annals of the state legislature or then would you prefer to elect and select an Aam Aadmi party representative who might have a few rough edges but will remain steadfast in his commitment towards putting you first........
