Shocking story of apathy in West Bengal, after rape, they celebrated - NewsX

Even as the administration claimed it had acted promptly, more gruesome details emerged. Villagers told on Thursday that after the kangaroo court ordered her to be sexually savaged, the woman was placed on a raised bamboo platform so that the gang-rape was viewed by the entire village, children included.
"If the family does not pay up, go and enjoy yourselves," is what headman and now prime accused Boloi Murdy allegedly told the men.
The woman's family alleged she and her lover, a man from a nearby village, were tied up in Murdy's courtyard, where a kangaroo court was held and handed down the punishment — a Rs 50,000 fine for the man and gang rape for the woman. Some villagers told that the woman's cries rent the air all night but no one stepped forward to help her. Even her family, who lives 50 metres away, could not rescue her.
