Alleged KP teacher molests 6-yr-old girl in Srinagar causing outrage

IndiaAlleged KP teacher molests 6-yr-old girl in Srinagar causing outrage

Jammu and Kashmir police arrested the Kashmiri Pandit teacher, filed a case against him for allegedly molesting a 6-year-old girl in Srinagar.

While incidentally, one never associates a crime with a person’s ethnicity and religion, unfortunately, after the Kashmir Files, a pronounced usage of “Kashmiri Pandits” over India has sharpened attacks and with this, when the molester happens to be a Kashmir Pandit teacher, locals in Kashmir exploded with different reactions.

Locals and family members told news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), that a minor girl was allegedly molested by a person in a Srinagar area on March 31 after which they approached the police.

Talking to KNO, a top police official said that case of alleged molestation has been registered on the complaint of the victim’s family as there was no rape as per the initial probe of the police.

“Two days ago, there was a complaint lodged by a family about suspected molestation of a minor girl, wherein Srinagar police lodged FIR under relevant sections of IPC and POCSO Act. The accused was also arrested immediately,” the police said without naming the accused.

“Further, there was no complaint of rape by the family of members of the minor girl, which was corroborated by medical examination as well,” the police said, adding, “Some unscrupulous elements are trying to give this incident a communal color by giving motivated statements with intention to create communal divide”. The police said, “Public is requested not to pay heed to such rumours.”

Peoples Conference youth president, Sheikh Mohammad Imran demanded capital punishment against a man who allegedly raped a minor girl in the Soura area of Srinagar and questioned selective silence about this incident.

Taking to the micro-blogging site Twitter, Imran said that he was shocked to know that a 6-year-old girl from the Vicharnag area of Soura was raped by a Kashmiri Pandit.

He also said that crime is never associated with any race or religion and quested the selective silence about this incident.

“Heard distressing news about a 6- yr old girl of Vicharnag (Soura) raped by a Kashmiri rather Kashmiri pandit. Crime is never associated with any Race or religion but why is there a selective silence about this incident? If this is true then silence seems criminal,” he tweeted.  He also asked DC Srinagar and police to ascertain the facts and bring justice to the victim.

“We have to break this criminal silence & bring justice to humanity & stand for Strict punishment rather capital punishment against the monster who destroyed the life of a blooming girl. Request @AsadamAijaz @srinagaradmin @SrinagarPolice for verification and justice,” he further tweeted.

The Kashmir Files Polarizing the Atmosphere in Kashmir

Zaara Syed from Kashmir wrote, “6-year-old girl raped by Kashmiri Pandit teacher in Soura Srinagar. Where are those people who were standing with these Pandits. This is the real Kashmir Files which no one will show to the world.

The effects of the Kashmir Files have charged the atmosphere with more anger and there is a certain emphasis on the molester being a Kashmiri pandit.  In the video below, a police officer is assuring the Kashmiris that the molester is in jail and that it was not a rape but molestation.  The locals and family staged a protest demanding punishment for the accused and many are asking for him to be hanged.
