IS THIS THE INDIA OF OUR DREAMS.........



Is this indeed the India of the 21 st century and our dreams that we have come to love and cherish; if so then we indeed need to take a long and incisive look at ourselves in our mirrors and minutely examine our motives and actions........
A 21 year old woman belonging to Uttar Pradesh's Bareilly district has alleged that she was sold off to her captor hailing from Uttar Pradesh's Rampur area a little over three (3) years ago for the paltry and pithy sum of Rs. 50,000/- by her immediate neighbour........
According to police sources; the 18 year old woman (at the time when she was sold); a lifelong resident of Bandiya Village in C.B. Ganj had unhesitatingly accompanied the accused woman from the neighbourhood to Rampur; where she was initially incarcerated in a dark; desolate and dingy room against her will and subsequently sold off to one Padam Singh of Rampur by the accused woman for Rs. 50,000/-..........
According to the long suffering victim; she was made to pander to her buyer's convoluted and sometimes sinister sexual urges and proclivities during the three year period and even gave birth to a son during the time she was kept in captivity by her buyer; lord and master........
She (the hapless victim) also claimed that she made numerous furtive attempts to flee from the clutches of her tormentor and torturer but was caught and brought back every single time; she also claimed that she was attacked with a knife by her captor on quite a few occasions........
About five days ago; (night of November 6; 2014 to be precise); the traumatised and harangued woman managed to make good her escape from her enforced prison with her son in tow while her jailor had gone off to a neighbouring village for a family function; she somehow managed to wend her way back to her original home and hearth and tearfully narrated the tale of her hellish ordeal to her disbelieving and dismayed family members.......
Her enraged family members then made a beeline towards the local police station with the victim in tow but were directed towards the Rampur cops by the local police personnel as the alleged crime had occurred in Rampur and hence needed to be registered therein.........
As per their age old habit; the Rampur police authorities simply refused to take cognisance of the victim's litany of complaints and started pointing fingers at her; they only took cognisance of the matter and registered an FIR when directed to do so by the DGP of the area who took due cognisance of the victim's heart rending plight........
Cases have since been lodged against the elusive neighbourhood woman and Padam SIngh and further investigations into the horrific crime are on............
