A woman in Begusarai, Bihar, was gang-raped by a group of five men on June 11 near Chakia police station. The assailants broke into the couple's home at approximately 11:30 p.m. while the woman was in the bathroom. After locking her husband in a room, the perpetrators attacked the woman and dragged her to an isolated area outside the house where they committed the crime. When she attempted to call for help, the attackers used a blade to inflict cuts on her chest and thighs.
Medical examination at Sadar Hospital revealed severe injuries and the presence of foreign objects embedded in her private areas. Doctors extracted a bullet, a stone, and a piece of wood from her body during the initial examination. The woman reported experiencing continuous pain, which prompted a second medical examination that again confirmed the presence of these objects. She remained hospitalized for treatment of her injuries.
According to the survivor's account, she lost consciousness during the attack and was unaware of how the foreign objects became embedded. She reported that she contacted her younger sister-in-law, who came to assist and freed her husband from the locked room before alerting police. The woman was initially taken to Barouni Hospital and then referred to Sadar Hospital for treatment.
The woman also disclosed that three criminals had broken into her home three months earlier, physically assaulted her, attempted sexual harassment, and stole money and jewelry. She stated that she had reported that incident to police, but no action was taken. Police are currently conducting a scientific investigation into the current case and have promised swift arrests of the perpetrators. Authorities have also committed to taking action against police personnel if negligence is found in their handling of the previous complaint.
Why This Matters
This case highlights systemic failures in law enforcement response to sexual violence in India. The victim's report of a previous assault three months earlier that went uninvestigated suggests a dangerous pattern of police negligence that enabled repeat crimes. The extreme brutality and insertion of foreign objects indicate vicious premeditation. Public attention to this case can drive accountability—authorities have already committed to investigating police misconduct—and pressure for stronger victim protection mechanisms and faster police response in rural areas where such crimes often go unpunished.
