00:00Viewers, I want to take you to Bengal this evening on Super 6.
00:05Betis betrayed again and how.
00:08One woman, a young woman from Bengal's Panihati, not 24 Parganas,
00:12was allegedly lured with a fake job offer by these two on your screen dancing in these videos.
00:18And it's a mother and a son door.
00:20Aryan Khan and his mother Shweta Khatun Khan.
00:24And then horror followed.
00:26This young woman believed them and went on to possibly get a job,
00:30have some livelihood for her, herself and her family.
00:33In turn, as per this young woman's claims, with visible injuries all over her body,
00:38she has claimed she was held captive by the woman and her husband in their Havra apartment for at least six months.
00:44And there was no job, as she was promised.
00:47She was expected instead to participate in shooting, recording, participating in pornography videos.
00:53Forced to work as a bar dancer.
00:55When she refused in each of these activities, that is when the torture began.
01:00She was allegedly brutally tortured and to such an extent that iron rods allegedly were inserted into her private parts.
01:08She was starved.
01:09She was severely injured.
01:10And there are visible injury marks all over her body.
01:12We've in fact blurred it out.
01:14The woman on your screen is the accused.
01:16When the young woman managed to finally escape somehow, that is when the details emerged.
01:23She's currently undergoing treatment.
01:25She's in a critical condition.
01:26A case has been filed at the Kharda police station.
01:29But here is the most important part.
01:31The mother and the son who you see dancing, enjoying, having a gala time in these videos,
01:36both these accused are currently absconding.
01:37We do not know where they are.
01:39Police investigation is ongoing.
01:41Fact is, for all that glitter in their happy videos, these influencers were possibly part of a dark web of pornography and fake promises.
01:51We do not know where they are.
02:21They are recording.
02:43They are as well as kids.
02:44The land is not there yet.
02:45We have to gather the land.
02:47The land is not there yet.
02:51We have to gather and gather together.
02:54The land is here.
02:55Do you have any tea?
02:57Fine, please take it away from the land.
03:01The tea plant is on the land.
03:03A little bit is here.
03:05I found the land in the camera God is placed on the house.
03:07I used to call theairy milk.
03:10My English friend is here today.
03:13I asked her, she said the people don't have work at all.
03:16What do you want to work at home?
03:17She said to me, if she said you don't work at home and she said this.
03:23She said, she said, whatever work, she said.
03:26She said, I want to work alone and she I did.
03:31I didn't want to work.
03:32But she would do to run.
03:34That's what she did and check her out there.
03:36The number was given, she deleted everything.
03:39The woman has leveled serious allegations against the mother-son duo that she was offered
03:59a better job with a better salary.
04:01And when she moved to their flat to get the better job in an event management, then she
04:07was offered to work in pornographic videos.
04:11She was offered to work as a bar dancer and also a call girl.
04:14When the woman refused to do so, she was brutally tortured by the mother-son duo.
04:19She was even sexually assaulted by both of them.
04:22And after spending six months, because she was held captive, she was confined illegally
04:29in the flat in Howrah by the mother-son duo for almost six months.
04:34And last 6th of June, she finally somehow managed to escape from the flat and went to her home.
04:41And when she reached her own home, her mother couldn't even recognize her own daughter.
04:46And right now she's under treatment, she's hospitalized with serious injuries.
04:50And after getting a complaint, Howrah City Police has lodged an affair against the mother-son
04:55duo, Suveta Khan and Aryan Khan.
04:59They have been named in the affair.
05:01Howrah City Police has launched an investigation into this case.
05:05And right now they are on the run as per the police sources.
05:08Because Howrah City Police have conducted several raids at the residents of Suveta Khan and Aryan
05:13Khan.
05:14But they were not found.
05:15Howrah City Police is currently proving the case after getting a written complaint from
05:21the woman, who is a resident of North City, Paragona.
05:23With camera person Lissan Lodh, this is Rajesh Shaha for India Today, Kolkata.
05:45What kind of torture and the promise of a job of a poor young woman looking to a bright future.
05:54I want to bring in Rajesh Shaha in this telecast this evening.
05:57Rajesh, good evening.
05:58Tell me about how did the incident finally surface?
06:01How did she manage to escape?
06:02How are the investigators looking at it?
06:04Because the fact is, amid all of this, she has been able to put out her story.
06:08But both the accused are absconding.
06:10We do not know where they are.
06:11Well, Pooja, that incident first came into the light on 7th of June when the victim girl
06:23somehow managed to escape from the flat in Howrah.
06:27And somehow she managed to escape from the flat and went to her own house in Panihati,
06:44under Northern Paragona district.
06:46And when she reached her own home, her mother couldn't recognize her own daughter.
06:51She was brutally tortured.
06:53She was sexually abused.
06:55And she was assaulted by the mother-son duo who are a resident of Howrah district.
07:00And when she narrates regarding the torture she faced during the last six months in the flat of Swetha Khan and Aryan Khan.
07:10The mother of the victim girl went to the police station and lodged a police complaint at Khordha police station.
07:17But as the place of occurrence falls under Howrah police commissioner,
07:21so they registered a zero F.R. and transferred the F.R. to Howrah police commissioner to continue the probe.
07:29And after getting the complaint from the victim, Howrah city police has started the investigation.
07:35Howrah city police have launched several raids at the residence of Swetha Khan in Domjur area.
07:42But they were not found inside the flat.
07:44They are right now on the run since the last few days.
07:47I hope they are now soon because at least…
07:50Go ahead, Rajesh, finish your point.
07:52Alright, Rajesh keeps tracking all the latest on that because we will wait for the arrest of the mother-son duo.
08:06They had a production house, so to say that they had opened.
08:09That was possibly a front.
08:11But was there a pornography racket?
08:13Because can it just be one woman?
08:15Or through her there could be an unraveling of a bigger racket.
08:18But look at how they were trapping poor young women who only wanted a basic job
08:24so that they can have some income for themselves and their family.
08:27What exactly are the details that this young woman and her family,
08:31after she managed to escape and reach out for help, actually narrated?
08:35I have the details for you.
08:36First revelation.
08:37That she was lured, offered a job.
08:40Remember this happened especially in parts where they know that young women are trying to seek job outside,
08:45outside their villages or small towns.
08:47The second revelation that has come out is,
08:50when she believed this mother and son duo and went along with them,
08:55she realized she was being asked to shoot and participate in a pornography video, a film,
09:00and she did not want to be a part of it.
09:02When she refused, she started to be tortured.
09:05And tortured brutally, ruthlessly, beaten black and blue, swollen eyes, broken teeth, broken bones.
09:11Then a revelation has come from the young woman's family.
09:15The survivor's family has alleged that it appears iron rods were inserted and forced into her private parts,
09:22basically again to torture her to be able to agree to participate in the kind of work the mother and son wanted.
09:28Another revelation that has surfaced is that they were, if not inserting it into the private parts,
09:34they were beating her up constantly with iron rods and more.
09:38There have been cigarette butt wounds on the body, on the chest and other parts of the body that have been found as well.
09:46That means she was burnt with lit cigarette butts again in a way to torture her.
09:51There have been serious injuries, revelation number seven, on different parts of her body, especially in private parts.
09:57What kind of deranged minds, remember, are we talking about?
10:00And again I reiterate that this is one story.
10:03Are we looking at a bigger racket?
10:05But that's not where the big story is coming from.
10:08This has turned political. And how?
10:10You would think it's just about a criminal mind.
10:13Is this political support coming in to a certain extent?
10:16Bhartya Janata Party has jumped in on this.
10:18They are claiming that Shweta Khatun Khan has links to the ruling Trinamul Congress.
10:22Now they are citing a Facebook profile photograph and we'll put that out.
10:26Some of these images on your screen are of one Shweta Khatun.
10:29The BJP is alleging that she clearly has been working with the TMC to a certain extent.
10:35So we also decided to do a little more digging.
10:38These images on your screen.
10:40You can see the accused at various events of the Trinamul Congress in Bengal,
10:45standing right next to the TMC leaders.
10:47One is Bengal Minister Arup Roy.
10:49There is Sudeep Bandopadhyay also seen a senior leader, a known leader.
10:54So a question here.
10:56Was at any point, was she confident of political support?
11:00Did she have the audacity to do what she was doing, knowing fairly well?
11:04That there is backing.
11:06And I will wait for the TMC leaders to be able to put out a response.
11:10Did they know this woman?
11:11Did they know what she was really doing to poor Bengali women?
11:16Well, I had a lot of applause for the show.
11:18Thank you very much for her so much.
11:20For this event, I saw a nice and gentle wrestler.
11:22foreign
11:52I will speak to you as a leader,
11:55I will speak to you as a leader.
11:59In the first time I will speak to you as a leader on the one hand.
12:03I will be aware of the names andistan.
12:09So suddenly I have given a message,
12:13then I am going to speak to you as a leader on the other hand,
12:17as a leader,
12:21foreign
12:51I don't know how to get the name of the people.
12:54I don't know how to get the name of the people.
13:00I don't know how to get the name of the people.
13:05I don't know how to get the name of the people.
13:08A good response now.
13:09That's from Bengal Minister Aru Proyd.
13:11What is he saying when he was questioned about
13:13Did he know this woman Shweta Khatun or Hassan Arir Khan
13:17and the fact that they were torturing at least one woman who's been able to speak up?
13:47I don't know how to get the name of the people.
13:51I'm sorry.
13:52I'm sorry.
13:53I'm sorry.
13:54I'm sorry.
13:55I'm sorry.
13:56I'm sorry.
13:57I'm sorry.
13:58I'm sorry.
13:59I'm sorry.
14:00I'm sorry.
14:01All right.
14:02So that was the husband basically.
14:03I just want to tell you that was Mohammed Said Morsalim.
14:05That's the latest reaction that has come in.
14:08And he's the former husband of Shweta Khan.
14:11Now he's alleged that she married him for money and property.
14:15There are more reactions as developments that are coming in in this case.
14:18That there were men allegedly being invited by the woman.
14:25I want you to listen in again.
14:26This is the latest.
14:27The bite of the former husband has come in.
14:30Let's listen in again to this.
14:59Right.
15:00So that is what is the latest story that has come in from Bengal.
15:03And we'll try and get you more details.
15:06It's a huge incident that has taken place and we'll try and unravel more.
15:10And likely perhaps the ruling party should also help and cooperate.
15:13If at all there is any information that they have and even the denial that has come in.
15:17Meanwhile, I want to now take you to Karnataka.
15:20As the blame game over the Karnataka stampede that left 11 dead and over 40 injured.
15:25Continuous sources are telling India today that the Congress top brass is upset with the Karnataka unit.
15:31And there could be a rejig coming in on the cards.
15:34India today tracking all the developments.
15:36Could there be a cabinet reshuffle?
15:38Is it just a coincidence that this cabinet reshuffle is coming in right after the stampede incident?
15:45The Bengaluru stampede that killed 11 is causing tremors within the Congress.
15:56Top sources in the party tell India today that Rahul Gandhi is upset and was considering a cabinet reshuffle.
16:04Sources say that home and Deputy Chief Minister portfolios were under review and BK Hari Prasad and RV Desh Pandey are likely to be inducted.
16:14A high level meet was held in Delhi which was attended by Congress President Mallika Arjun Kargay, KC Venugopal, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddhar Rameya and Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar.
16:25Shivakumar rejected reports of any cabinet reshuffle.
16:39Congress General Secretary Venugopal confirmed the Bengaluru stampede figured in the talks.
16:46The government of Karnataka has already ordered a judicial enquiry to find out what exactly happened.
16:55During the course of judicial enquiry, the party didn't want to involve into the nitricity of the issue.
17:01Earlier at a meeting in Bengaluru, the state leadership considered action against the Chief Secretary.
17:07They blamed short notice for the lack of security.
17:10After first blaming police, the government is now blaming the system.
17:15This even as the High Court grills the Congress government posing nine questions.
17:43Who took the decision to hold the victory bash?
17:46Who was in charge of regulating traffic?
17:49What steps were taken?
17:51What medical facilities available?
17:54What was the crowd expected?
17:56If the injured were attended to immediately?
17:59What were the SOPs put in place by the government?
18:03Any permission was sought for the event?
18:06As Blame Game continues, grieving families are demanding accountability.
18:11No one can't do the police's work without government.
18:12What can do the police's work?
18:13What can we do?
18:14How can we do it?
18:15What can we do?
18:16The whole plan is everything.
18:17Everything is going all.
18:18As the political heat rises in Karnataka, the High Command in Delhi could decide who takes the fall.
18:36With Sagai Raj in Bengaluru, Bureau Report, India Today.
18:39I want to bring in my colleague Sagai Raj on the latest on that.
18:43Sagai, what are you picking up?
18:44What's happening?
18:45Because right now, it's still a developing story.
18:47We do not know about what will happen.
18:49Do you think the axe could fall on the Deputy CM, on the Home Minister and why would that happen?
18:56We noticed that Deputy CM was in the middle of the controversy where the opposition had targeted him.
19:04He was in limelight when the place reached Bengaluru.
19:09He was the one who received from the airport.
19:11And thereafter, it was a long order failure where the Home Minister was at the center of attraction.
19:17The opposition tried to target the Home Minister saying that he was incapable.
19:21He didn't even try to address the grievances at that point of time.
19:26So, it clearly shows that the High Command was unhappy with these two leaders.
19:30The discussion has taken place that how the government has addressed these issues.
19:34And subsequently, the leaders have briefed the High Command stating that the government's action in this issue is whether it is the judicial inquiry or the suspension of the police officers.
19:50They have explained and as Vedu Gopal has briefed the media after the meeting went on to say that High Command is quite happy.
19:57And they have also discussed about the socio-economic charge which is popularly known as the Star Survey which will be also tabled and discussed in the day's time.
20:07Alright, Sagai, keep tracking the latest on that because could there be a decision at the top leadership of Karnataka?
20:14There could be a reshuffle and how? Who will that be?
20:17Or perhaps right now as we have seen among our political corridors and leaders, it's just a blame game buck being passed from one to another.
20:24While RCB marketing head has been arrested and senior cops like the CP of Bengaluru has been suspended.
20:30We'll be checking that and more.
20:32Amid all of this, stay tuned now because I want to take you to the United States of America.
20:37Joining me now from Florida is Akshita Nand Gopal and she's going to tell you all about the historic first that's happening.
20:45Akshita, over to you about what precisely is unfolding hours to go and what happened?
20:51We were expecting it this evening, the delay that has come in with regard to Group Captain Shubhanshi Shukla's launch.
20:57Over to you.
20:58Thanks very much, Pooja. Good evening to all of our viewers.
21:05I'll be getting all of the updates of what's happening.
21:07Are we going to be seeing that launch in 24 hours?
21:09Is there a further delay?
21:11That's coming up on the other side of a very, very short break on the special broadcast coming to you from Florida.
21:18Bye.
