A rape victim from Uttar Pradesh has written a letter to President Draupadi Murmu. In this he has sought permission for euthanasia. The 30-year-old woman has written that she has lost all hope of justice. Also alleged that despite the FIR being lodged at Puranpur Kotwali police station on October 9, the police deliberately did not arrest any accused.
According to the woman, she married a 55-year-old farmer from Chandigarh, who is also divorced, for the second time after her divorce three years ago. Her stepson approached her for an illicit relationship in April and has been repeatedly sexually assaulted since then. She alleged that, “her stepson threatened her with ‘consequences’, which initially forced her to keep quiet.” When she became pregnant, she was brutally hurt in the abdomen. Then when she wanted to go for a DNA test. Later, she was forced to undergo an abortion at a private hospital in Puranpur.
The victim further said that, on July 18, she was taken to the farmhouse of her husband’s friend where she was raped by a relative and two associates.
She further claimed that her written complaint was ignored by the local police and other senior officials. She then moved the court which ordered the police to register an FIR. The FIR was recently registered by Puranpur Kotwali police station and charged five persons including her husband and stepson under IPC sections 376-D (gang rape), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 504 (intentional insult) and 506 Case registered. But no one has been arrested.
After this, the woman has written a letter to President Draupadi Murmu, seeking permission for euthanasia. She said in her letter that she has been receiving death threats repeatedly. She wrote in the letter, “I have struggled a lot and I don’t think I will get any justice. Therefore, I want to end my life with your (President’s) permission.” The woman currently lives in Bareilly with her mother, brother and six-year-old son.
Superintendent of Police, Dinesh Kumar Prabhu said, “It is a complex case with layers of facts and evidence. We are conducting a fair investigation and it will be completed soon. Thereafter, action will be taken accordingly.”
