Disturbing New Details Emerge in Kolkata Gang-Rape Case
New, harrowing revelations have surfaced in the gang‑rape case at a Kolkata law college, involving a 24‑year‑old student who alleges she was assaulted inside campus by three men, including a former student leader. The victim claims she was beaten with a hockey stick, recorded without consent, and blackmailed into silence—and these disturbing allegations have escalated concerns over student safety and legal accountability on educational campuses.
According to the survivor, the ordeal began after she reportedly declined a marriage proposal from the ex-student, who is accused of orchestrating the crime as revenge. She alleges that he, along with two current students, forcibly brought her onto campus grounds late one evening, locking her inside the guardroom for over three hours. There, she says he struck her with a hockey stick, stripping her down and assaulting her while filming the attack to threaten and control her.
College Crime
The brutality of the allegations has shocked the city, particularly due to the brazen nature of the assault on school property. The victim describes being intimidated and forced to endure the violence while being unable to flee. “She was emotionally distressed and physically unable to resist,” say investigators, underlining the horror of the situation.
Blackmail Allegations
The accused allegedly recorded parts of the assault to silence the victim, warning her that the footage would be used unless she complied with their demands. She also recounts threats of being stabbed if she attempted to escape. It was only after they believed her broken and frightened that they reportedly released her late that night.
Student Safety
The incident has triggered a wave of outrage on social media and among activist groups demanding urgent action. Many are calling for emergency measures on campuses, ranging from 24/7 guardroom monitoring to tightening anti-sexual assault protocols. Educators and authorities are under pressure to implement systemic reforms and immediate security upgrades in educational institutions statewide.
Authorities in Kolkata acted swiftly, arresting all three accused and remanding them to five days of interrogation. Police have seized CCTV footage from the campus and confiscated mobile phones allegedly used by the perpetrators. A full medical and forensic examination of the victim is underway, and the college administration has initiated an internal probe.
