JAMMU, May 13: The National Student Union of India (NSUI) unit of University of Jammu and some women activists today came on roads against the alleged rape of a girl by a cop of J&K police in police station Khour.
A large number of NSUI members led by Avijot Singh (State general secretary) gathered outside Jammu University against the shameful act of J&K police and raised slogans against the J&K Police.
The NSUI activists lashed out at J&K police for such a shameful incident that too inside the police station. They said that people used to trust the police but this incident added a fear among people against such law binders. They appealed DG Police to install CCTV cameras inside every police station of the State so that such incidents may be prevented.
Another protest was held by some women activists outside Press Club. Led by National Conference worker, Komal Singh Manhas, the women hold a massive protest carrying placards in their hands with slogans against the SHO Mohammed Iqbal and demanding severe punishment for him.
Manhas, while addressing the gathering of protesting women, said it is very unfortunate that the Chief Minister of J&K, who herself is a woman, did not utter a single word of condemnation against this heinous crime. She said that the incident has maligned the image of the police and lost trust of women on police.
She said that the senior police officials should not fall prey to any pressure and ensure that the accused cop gets exemplary punishment.
