August 25th 2024.
In Jharsuguda, a town in the state of Odisha, a woman has been through a traumatic experience. She was allegedly ostracised and had her head shaved as a form of punishment, all because of a quarrel that turned violent. The police are now investigating the incident and have arrested four people, including the woman's husband.
The incident occurred in Routbahal village, under the jurisdiction of the Laikera police station. According to the authorities, the woman and her husband had a heated argument on August 9th, during which she physically lashed out at him. In response, the husband sought the help of the villagers and a kangaroo court was assembled to resolve the matter. The so-called court decided that the woman should be punished by being ostracised and having her head shaved. They also imposed a fine of Rs 5,000 and demanded that she provide a mutton feast for the villagers.
After the humiliating punishment was carried out, the woman and her son sought help from the police and filed a complaint. The officer in charge of the Laikera police station, Dillip Kumar Behera, assured that they are actively investigating the matter and have arrested the woman's husband and three other villagers who were involved in the act.
It is truly disheartening to hear about such incidents where people take the law into their own hands and subject someone to such cruel punishment. The police are determined to bring justice to the woman and her family and ensure that the culprits are held accountable for their actions. Such acts of violence and injustice have no place in our society, and it is the responsibility of every individual to stand against them and promote a peaceful and just society for all.
