The women’s panel said it will hold discussions with the victim after she recovers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Bhubaneswar: <\/b><\/p>\n
The Odisha State Commission for Women has sought a report from the Crime Branch of Police in connection with the alleged torture of a woman home guard by the wife of a DIG-rank police officer.<\/p>\n
The home guard lost both of her legs under the wheels of a running train in her attempt to die by suicide allegedly after being tortured by a DIG-rank officer’s wife, at whose residence she was working.<\/p>\n
The State Commission for Women has asked the Crime Branch ADG to submit a report within 15 days from Wednesday.<\/p>\n
“We have taken sou motu cognisance of the case and want the report within a fortnight,” the panel’s chairperson Minati Behera said.<\/p>\n
Stating that the women’s commission will hold discussions with the victim after she recovers, Behera said necessary steps will be taken according to the law.<\/p>\n
The SCW’s action came a day after the Odisha Human Rights Commission (OHRC) sought a report from the police on the alleged torture.<\/p>\n
The woman has been undergoing treatment at a private hospital in Cuttack while the Odisha Police has transferred North Central range DIG Brijesh Rai to the state police headquarters after a hue and cry across the state.<\/p>\n
The victim accused the IPS officer’s wife of verbally abusing her and beating her up if she failed to perform her job properly.<\/p>\n
Rai, however, rejected the allegations and claimed that the woman home guard, identified as Souridri Sahu of Angul district, was disturbed because of some family issues.<\/p>\n
