Case filed over college girl ‘molestation’ at Banglamotor

A case was filed in connection with the reported sexual assault on a college girl at Banglamotor intersection on Wednesday.

Victim’s father filed the case with Ramna Police Station on Thursday, said Shafiq, inspector (operation) of Ramna Police Station.

Earlier, a group of people from a procession molested a college girl at Banglamotor intersection on way to join an Awami League rally at Suhrawardy Udyan  while many took still and video footages of the incident in their mobile phones.

Later, the victim posted a status on his Facebook account describing the trauma she underwent.

The post reads, "Could not catch a bus even after waiting for one hour at Shantinagar intersection. Went to Banglamotor on foot only to find myself amid a procession.Around 15-20 people surrounded me...many were trying to take video clips and still photos of a girl in a college uniform being harassed. The button of my uniform tore off and the scarf was removed. They slapped me... my two hands couldn't save myself from so many hands. A police officer rescued me and helped me find a bus....there's no bruise in the body except severe pain. I'm mentally horrified but physically fit. I won't stay in the country of these pigs. I won't stay in the country of those who molest a girl shouting 'Joy Bangla'. Won't stay. Wont' stay...."

Meanwhile, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan on Thursday said drives are underway to arrest those who sexually harassed a college girl at Banglamotor intersection reportedly on way to an Awami League at the Suhrawardy Udyan on Wednesday.
