News India Live, Digital Desk: Two such soul-shattering incidents of crime against women have come to light from Aligarh district of Uttar Pradesh, which have raised big questions on social security and digital purity. On one hand, a student, fed up with the continuous teasing and gossip of the grooms, embraced death, while on the other hand, a madman tampered with the girl’s photographs and sent them to her fiance, due to which the girl’s marriage broke. Both these cases have put the functioning of the police administration and cyber cell in the dock.
First incident: If you die then you will be left behind! Tired of teasing, student hangs herself An intermediate student living in a police station area of Aligarh was troubled by the terror of local miscreants for the last several days. It is alleged that while traveling on the way, Shohde used to make obscene comments at her and threatened to kill her if she protested. Due to public shame and fear, the student kept suffocating, but when the water level went above her head, she committed suicide by hanging herself in the room of the house. The family members are in a sad state and have made serious allegations against the police for not taking timely action.
Second incident: Edited photo ruined happiness, broke marriage The second incident is the culmination of digital crime. Here a young man made the girl’s photo objectionable through editing software and sent it to her future in-laws and fiance. As soon as the in-laws saw the photo, they broke the relationship. The victim’s family says that the accused was harassing her for a long time due to unrequited love and after the marriage was fixed, he took this despicable step out of revenge.
Police action: FIR registered, search for accused intensified Aligarh Police has come into action after both these cases gained momentum. In the case of student suicide, the police have registered an FIR and detained some suspects. At the same time, in the case of photo editing, the help of cyber cell is being taken so that the digital signature and IP address from where the photo was sent can be tracked. SSP Aligarh has assured that action will be taken against the accused under Gangster Act and other strict sections.
dark face of society and technology These incidents show how technology is now being used to destroy one’s life. Psychologists believe that lack of prompt legal action in cases of cyber bullying and harassment forces victims to take suicidal steps. This injustice done to these daughters of Aligarh has created immense anger among the local people and they are demanding strictest punishment to the accused.
