20-Year-Old Woman Gangraped, Shaved, Garlanded With Slippers, Paraded With Blackened Face. DCW Writes To Delhi Police To Take Action

There is never a day that I get up to no news of a woman getting raped, molested groped, etc. At this point, my hope is deteriorating faster than my brain cells. And if it wasn’t any worse before, it’s getting much much much worse now. Don’t believe me? Let me present to you an instance. A 20-year-old in Delhi was gangraped, her head was shaved, and made to wear a garland of slippers! This is horrifying! And the Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) is on top of it and has even written to Delhi police to take serious actions against both men and women who were involved in it.

Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) on Thursday wrote that a 20-year-old woman was gangraped, tonsured, garlanded with slippers, and paraded with a blackened face in the Kasturba Nagar, Delhi. Swati Maliwal, the chairperson of DCW said that she was issuing a notice to Delhi police to arrest the people responsible for it and also provide security to the survivor.

In her tweet, Swati Maliwal of DCW wrote (translated), “In Kasturba Nagar, a 20-year-old girl was gangraped by illegal liquor sellers, made her bald, wore a garland of slippers and turned her face black in the entire area. I am issuing notice to Delhi Police. All criminal men and women should be arrested and the girl and her family should be given security.”

In fact, the reports suggest that Swati Maliwal also met with the survivor who informed her that she was gangraped by 3 men involved in the illicit trade of liquor and drugs locally. In a release, the woman panel said, “Ms Maliwal met the survivor who informed her that she was abducted from her home and gang-raped by 3 men who are involved in the illicit trade of liquor and drugs locally. While they were gang-raping her, the women present therein were instigating the men to rape her. She further informed that they beat her up brutally, shaved her head, blackened her face, and made her walk around the neighbourhood with a garland of slippers and shoes.”

Furthermore, the release of DCW also asked the Delhi police to provide security to the woman – who was gangraped, tonsured, and garlanded with slippers – and her family. They have given the police 72hrs to submit a detailed report on the action they’ve taken in the matter. After the video that showed the crime being committed came out, the Delhi police arrested four women so far. 

According to the woman’s brother, there was a boy in the neighbourhood who claimed to be in love with her, who committed suicide in November 2021. And the family of the boy blamed the woman for it. A senior police officer who is working on the woman’s case said, “Yesterday, we received information that some women have abducted a woman, thrashed and threatened her. We rescued the victim from the accused’s house; counselling and medical care of the victim was conducted. We’ve arrested four accused yesterday and apprehended an accused today.”

Hearing about a woman getting gangraped and thrashed by the public on the streets like this fills me up with fear and disgust. Instead of helping her out, they blamed her and brutally thrashed and shamed her. How low are we going to fall?
