Recently, a video has gone massively viral on social media showing a woman standing in a terrified state with her child in front of a military cantonment, crying. The small boy beside her, with a tearful voice, shouts at an army officer: “You are not good, you are very bad. You treated my mother very badly.” Then a person comes forward to console them and starts recording the video. He keeps saying there’s nothing to fear. Then he asks this woman what happened, and the woman describes the horrific incident of rape by Indian Army officers.
This woman says, “I was in my room at the hospital when these officers came there.” Then that person wants to know who they were, and the gang rape victim replies that there was a Brigadier, a Commander, and several others. She also claims they were all from the 40 Signal Regiment. After these officers entered the room, they locked the door and snatched her mobile phone and broke it, she claims.
This video instantly went massively viral on social media. However, no Indian media has focused on this matter. They haven’t even published any news about it.
It is learned from another statement by the colonel that went viral on social media that this woman who was gang-raped by senior officers of the Indian Army is the wife of a colonel. His name is Colonel Amit Kumar. He says, “The generals raped my wife and they are roaming freely.” At this time, he alleges that the top officials of the Indian Army raped and humiliated his wife. There’s no FIR, no arrest, just a clean chit. There’s video evidence, but the system remains silent. In this way, he also points accusations toward the Indian government.
This is not the first incident of gang rape or rape by Indian Army officers. Rather, previously there have been reports of their brutal torture and gang rape of Kashmiri Muslim women. Is it only Kashmir? Even in Manipur, during the heated situation of protests, there are public allegations that Indian soldiers raped women in that region. However, this time the gang rape of another officer’s wife by senior officials including a Brigadier from their own force seems to have shaken the conscience of the Indian nation and shocked the entire world.
However, the most surprising thing is that Indian mainstream media outlets have not published any news about the rape of a mother in front of her child. All the educated army officers who were supposed to protect the country committed such a despicable act as gang-raping a mother in front of her child! What will happen to this child? Indian netizens themselves are expressing concern on social media about how much psychological devastation and horror this child is going through.
The incident of gang rape of a mother by Indian Army officers in front of her child has literally created tremors in the hearts of ordinary people. Whether justice will be served for this incident in the country of hardcore Hindutva genocidal Narendra Modi is now the big question.
