Slamming Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, BJP’s Suvendu Adhikari said that the government in Bengal needed to look within as to what was wrong with the system.
Kolkata: In a horrific incident, an angry mob lynched a 40-year-old man accused of raping and killing a minor in north Bengal’s Falakata. Mona Roy was tied to a tree, villagers thrashing him till he died by the time cops rescued him and took him to hospital. The incident occurred on Friday.

The parents of the rape victim had approached the police and filed a missing complaint. Subsequently, a search operation was mounted. A piece of cloth led to her body in the pond.
The incident snowballed into a political blame game with the Leader of the Opposition in the Bengal assembly Suvendu Adhikari raising doubts over the post-mortem examination. He said in an online post that he visited the victim’s parents and was informed of alleged irregularities in the post-mortem.
I came to know about the anomalies in the post-mortem procedures, which might be an obstacle later on when the matter would come to trial before a Court. I have assured the bereaved parents that we are there for any help they require, be it legal or for anything else,” he said in an online post.
