In yet another shocking case, a 100-year-old woman was brutally raped, allegedly by a 21-year-old man from West Bengal.
The accused, identified as Abhijit Biswas, was produced before a sub-divisional court and later sent to 14 days of judicial custody. The incident took place on Monday night when Abhijit was caught by a family member of the old woman.
“The culprit was arrested on Tuesday. Section 376 (rape) of IPC (Indian Penal Code) has been slapped against him,” a senior officer at the police station, who did not wish to be named, said.
“We recently heard about septuagenarians being raped. But that a 100-year-old can be a victim of such crimes is unheard of,” said Ranjit Sur, vice-president of Association for Protection of Democratic Rights, a human rights organisation.
