Chopra horror
A video clip of a woman being beaten up mercilessly along with another man in an instance of what seemed like a "kangaroo court justice" by an alleged Trinamool Congress strongman in North Dinajpur district of West Bengal has gone viral, triggering an outrage with the Opposition launching a blistering attack on the Mamata Banerjee government.
The incident occurred in Lakshmipur area of Chopra block in North Dinajpur where the woman was beaten up by a man in public as a crowd that gathered watched the assault without protest.
The incident reportedly occurred at an "arbitration meeting" and the opposition BJP and the Left alleged that the assailant is local strongman named Tajemul who has Trinamool Congress connections and is known for such acts with impunity.
Instead of involving police the Trinamool Congress strongman reportedly decided to serve "instant justice" and beat up the woman mercilessly kicking her and pulling her by her hair. While the woman screamed for help, no one came forward to rescue her.
The perpetrator also attacked a man along with the woman as he beat up both with a stick. The cause of the assault is not yet known.
The incident reportedly occurred over the weekend. The video has not been verified by IBNS.
The BJP earlier alleged that a Muslim woman was stripped and beaten in Coochbehar district of West Bengal for supporting their party.
BJP IT Cell Head Amit Malviya identified the woman as Rosonara Khatun. He said she is a member of the party's minority Morcha.
