2 women paraded naked in Faridabad village on Holi

March 11, 2012
New Delhi/Faridabad, March 11: A woman and her daughter were allegedly paraded naked inside their village by neighbours on Holi. Their fault: the neighbours believed that her family had "conspired" and moved court, forcing them to cancel their daughter's wedding.

The incident occurred at the Raipur Kala village near Ballabhgarh on March 8. On the complaint of the victim, the police have registered a case under various sections of the IPC but claim "all the accused are absconding". An FIR has been lodged and 30 people have been named in it even though none has been arrested so far. "We have begun investigations and identifying the people. Arrests will begin soon," said Raj Kumar, DCP (Ballabgarh).

According to police, one Ishwar Singh had fixed the marriage of his minor daughter on March 11, which had to be called off due to intervention by the local court. The court had acted on an anonymous complaint. Ishwar suspected his neighbour was behind this, and decided to take revenge in the most mediaeval form.

On the day of Holi, Ishwar along with 30 armed men barged into his neighbour's house. "Not finding him there, they allegedly assaulted his mother and sister," Rajkumar said. Later, they blackened the mother's face and paraded her naked in the village.

"None of my cousins or brothers was present. They broke everything they could lay their hands on. They then molested me and my mother and held us at gunpoint. They forced us to strip and move around the neighbourhood. None of the neighbours came forward to help," said one of the victims.
