Scary pictures of people taking the law into their own hands and giving punishment by the mob (Mob Justice) often emerge from different parts of the country, which raise serious questions on the law and order of the society. The latest case has come to light from Koderma district of Jharkhand, where two youths who had come to meet a minor girl were caught red-handed by the local villagers. After this, the angry villagers not only misbehaved with the two youths, but also took them around the village in a procession and then tied them to an electric pole and punished them in Taliban style. After this incident, sensation has spread in the entire area and a new crisis has arisen in front of the local police administration regarding security arrangements. Let us investigate this entire sensitive matter in depth and know how the mob passed a dreadful verdict in this village of Koderma, ignoring the law.
According to the information received, two youths were quietly coming to meet a minor girl in a local village of Koderma district for a few days. On the day of the incident, when both the youths once again came to meet the girl, some people of the village noticed them. When the villagers started interrogating him on the basis of suspicion, the atmosphere heated up. Within no time a huge crowd gathered at the spot and the situation went out of control. Without waiting for any administrative or legal action, the mob itself played the role of a judge and caught both the youths. Due to the apprehension of finding a love affair or any other suspect, the villagers got so angry that they ignored all the rules of the law and got the punishment handed down by their own court.
The most frightening picture of the case came to light when the mob crossed all limits of inhumanity in the name of teaching a lesson to the two youths who were caught. The villagers caught hold of both the youths and took them in a procession through the streets of the entire village. During this time, bystanders and many people were seen making videos on mobile phones, but no one mustered the courage to stop them. After this, both the youths were tied tightly to an electric pole. After being tied to a pillar, he was beaten and tortured for hours. Such incidents clearly reflect the growing intolerance and distrust towards law in the society, where people themselves become police and judges.
Someone secretly made a video of this entire inhuman incident and made it viral on various social media platforms. As soon as the video went viral, the Koderma police administration was shocked and there was panic in the police department. On the instructions of higher officials, the police of the local police station immediately came into action and reached the spot and freed both the youth from the clutches of the mob. Taking cognizance of this matter, the police have started the process of identifying the main accused and taking strict legal action against them. Police officials say that no one has the right to take the law into their own hands, no matter how sensitive the matter is, and strict legal action will be taken against the culprits so that such incidents are not repeated in future.
This incident of Koderma once again exposes the bitter truth that the fear of rule of law is continuously decreasing in our society and people are becoming a part of violent mob lynching (Mob Lynching & Justice) in the name of quick justice. It is natural to be sensitive in matters related to minors, but it does not mean that citizens should take the law into their own hands and put someone’s life at risk or cross the limits of inhumanity. Such incidents are hollowing the fabric of the society from within. There is a need that the administration and local police take strict steps to stop such incidents and run awareness campaigns in rural areas so that in future no mob can dare to flout the law like this.
