With tears in her eyes, she shows the bite marks
and bruises on her body parts; they are everywhere on her cheeks, lips,
neck, stomach, breast and buttocks.
Almost a week after she was gang-raped on the
banks of the Jabi stream near the Armed Police Force battalion in
Chandrauta, Kapilvastu district, the victim is haunted by nightmares,
has lost appetite and shown signs of withdrawal.
“She has been like this ever since the incident,”
said her sister-in-law. “On the first day she showed enough strength to
show the police where she had been dragged and where the incident had
taken place but has withdrawn since.”
In the wake of the incident, police has arrested APF
Constable Lokraj Wosti after some clothing items and a soap bar believed
to belong to the APF personnel were recovered from the incident site.
The
APF has said it is committed to providing justice to the victim. “We
have launched our own departmental probe. We have also been cooperating
with the inspection carried out by Nepal Police,” said DSP Ajay
Chatkulli.
