In another blot on Bengal’s recent history of sexual violence against women, a second year girl student of Kala Bhavan of Vishwa Bharati University in Shantiniketan was allegedly ‘sexually harassed’ for a few days before her father who hails from Sikkim brought the incident before the media, University sources said adding Internal Complaint Committee Against Sexual Harassment was inquiring into the matter.
The father of the North East girl who on Friday took away her ward to Kolkata “to give her a better psychological environment out of this place before I can take some further decisions” told the media how the girl who was lured away by some students three of whom were her classmates “molested her, took her photographs and threatened her with posting them in the Net if she raised a hue and cry.”
