Reingamphi Awungshi

POLICE REFUSES TO FILE AN FIR

The deceased’s relatives submitted a complaint letter to the SHO, Malviya Nagar Police Station on 29th May 2013. They charged the landlord and his brother-in-law of sexually assaulting and murdering Ms Reingamphi. They informed the police that the brother-in-law of the landlord was stalking and harassing Ms Reingamphi and specifically over this weekend , 25-26th May, the landlord called her repeatedly. The SHO of the Police Station Malviya Nagar refused to file an FIR.

REFUSAL TO FILE FIR AS PER THE COMPLAINANT’S REQUEST

After 3 days of sustained pressure on 31 May, the Malviya Nagar Police finally lodged an FIR under Section 306, which is abetment to suicide. This is in complete disregard of the preliminary post-mortem report, which does not mention the cause of her death and against the wishes of the family.

On 1 June 2013 the Minister for Women and Child Development Dr Kiran Walia, arrived at the Malviya Nagar Police Station, where protests went on and intervened, saying that the case will be transferred to the Crime Branch and asked for a fresh post-mortem investigation.

THREATS FROM THE LOCAL COMMUNITY

A humble candle light vigil was organized near the house of the deceased in Chirag Dilli on 1st June, 2013.At the site of the vigil , the locals threatened the participants that if any of the local boys were investigated/picked up by the police then those from the North East living in that area would face consequences.

OUR DEMANDS

We, the civil society and women’s groups from all over Northeast region , Delhi and India condemn the killing of Ms A.S. Reingamphi alias A.S. Solam and call upon Govt of Delhi, Govt of India to ensure justice is done. We have been protesting over last several days to ensure justice is done and will continue our struggle to ensure peace to family of late Ms A.S. Reingamphi.
The present FIR done unilaterally by Malviya Nagar Police Station Delhi without taking into consideration the complainants’ letter be retracted and a fresh FIR be filed alleging sections 302(Murder) and 304(Culpable Homicide not amounting to murder) of the Indian Penal Code. Malviya Nagar Police Station had filed FIR under IPC Section 306 ( abetment to suicide ) which has been rejected by family members.
Serious attention must be paid to the discrepancies between the first and the second Post Mortem reports.
The suspects– the landlord and his brother-in-law– should be arrested and thoroughly questioned.
All the institutions involved speed up the process of investigation and justice be delivered. In this regard, the viscera report should come out as soon as possible.
Action to be taken against the Police officials of the Malviya Nagar Police Station for refusing to file an FIR which is the right of all the citizens.
Action to be taken against the residents of Chirag Dilli who said on 1st June 2013 at a candle light vigil held in memory of the deceased that if any of their men were investigated, they will take ‘action’ and thus threatened the relatives and supporters of the deceased and people of Northeast
Request Crime Branch Delhi to look into “pamphlet” circulated in hindi by Chirag Dilli men folk regarding the death and threats given to friends of the deceased on 3 June 2013 and ensure all protection be given to them.
Ensure the safety, security of all the people from North Eastern who are living, working and studying in Delhi be treated equally without any discrimination and ensure justice is done.

Congress wants development at grass root level : Faleiro

IMPHAL, May 4 NNN: AICC general secretary in-charge of the Northeast, Luzinho Faleiro stated on Tuesday the Congress Government at the Centre always tries to bring development in the country at the grassroots level.
Faleiro was attending a one-day block level conference at Tribal Research Institute (TRI), Chingmeirong in Imphal organized by Phungyar Block Congress Committee (Phungyar BCC).
He said the Congress Party is dynamic by nature and that the foremost task and major aim of this party is to implement development programmes at the grassroots level and ensure all the benefits of these programmes to all.
Under the UPA Government currently as much as 16 flagship programmes are being taken up across the country, the Congress leader said.
He said benefits of these programmes have extended throughout the state of Manipur and these must be reached every nook and corner of the state.
(MPCC) president and Deputy Chief Minister of Manipur, Gaikhangam, Congress leader and MP Rishang Keishinh and Amo Samuel, president, Phungyar BCC also attended the function, apart from Faleiro.
Gaikhangam commented the people of Manipur in general lack sense of belongingness which have caused conflicts among communities.
He said the Congress Government in Manipur works hard to balance development between the valley and the hill, assuring that SDO/BDO offices in the hills will be upgraded into full- administrative units in the concerned areas within 2013-2014 and for this purpose, the state Government will construct a number of SDO/BDO office buildings, banks, office headquarters and other necessary infrastructures.

Inspection must cover nature of payment

Estimate committee of the state assembly has done a wonderful job by making on the spot assessment of the work done by the Government officials. After exposure by a news paper the committee made surprise visit to the godown of the GAD. They had known the under hand dealing between the suppliers and officials of the department. Newly bought carpets were in the godown and the missing if any were those that had been used during the VVIPs’ visit to the state. That implies something wrong was done. Yesterday construction of the national highway road was inspected. Officials in charge of the road had trouble time in explaining to the members of the committee why they could not follow the rules and procedures laid down in the rule book in the up gradation of the highway roads. The members of the committee were very smart and they quizzed the engineers why earth work was done at the area where it was not necessary at all. This is a new phenomenon employed in the allocation of work order. No contractor is willing to take road development work unless earth work is added in the work order. The cut at various levels starting from SO up to the highest level plus extra cut for unknown elements empty contractors’ pocket. But a contract work is done to make some money. Poor contractors fume when they get the bill. Shameless officials demand heavy cut without knowing whether the contractors have made any gain. The estimate committee as it inspects the construction work and supply done by contractor should try to know whether the contractors had actually received payment for the work done. Under an ambitious project retaining walls at the major rivers of the state including Nambul River was done in the recent past. Nobody cares about the poor contractors, who mortgaged even the homestead land for taking up the construction work. Now they lament having joined the construction spree. They regret had they known the payment would not be prompt they would not have done the work. In future none will come out for doing retaining wall construction. They had tasted the pang caused by inhuman attitude shown by engineers. They do not want to suffer again. The poor contractors were made fools. They spent sleepless night supervising the work done by labours. At the end they have turned out to be the real losers. Sadder is the fact that the engineers at the time of making some payment ridicule them for not bringing bribe money. Estimate committee should inspect how these engineers are thriving like lion devouring helpless animals.

It all began when bandh supporters and others who opposed the bandh confronted each other at the district headquarters today.

The police had to blank-fire to calm the situation. The situation was brought under control late this afternoon.

“We appeal to our leaders especially the state MLAs from the hills to wake up and speak out the truth for the discriminated hill people of Manipur,” ATSUM said today.

It then pledged to continue its agitation of 38 hours in a democratic manner.

ATSUM said all the developmental work under the state government as well as the under the Centre will be banned from working.

“The railway construction work, oil drilling or extraction of gas and many other developmental works will be banned,” threatened ATSUM today. ATSUM also said after the 38-hour `sustained agitation` it will further intensify its agitation if there is no response coming forth from the government.

Meanwhile, ATSUM alleged its president Muan Tombing was assaulted by police when he went to plead at Sekmai police station to secure release of members of All Tribal Disabled Union, Manipur (ATDUM) who were detained at the station for involving in the bandh yesterday. The ATSUM also alleged that ATDUM volunteers were also assaulted while using abusive words. However, the volunteers were released this afternoon.

The post Allegations fly as housewife succumbs two days after consuming poison appeared first on KanglaOnline.com.

IMPHAL, June 4: A 35 year old housewife succumbed this morning after consuming poison on June 1, allegedly after a quarrel with her husband.

The woman has been identified as Maibam (n) Ngairangban (o) Subhashini (35), wife of M Ingoucha of Nongpok Sekmai Makha Leikai under Yaipripok police station.

The woman’s family has claimed harassment of the woman by her husband and his family which incited her to take the extreme step. Family members of the deceased alleged that Subashini was taken back from her parental home at Nongpok Sekmai Leela Khangbong Mapal by her mother in law on the day she had consumed poison.

The dead body is presently kept at the JNIMS mortuary for post mortem.

Speaking to the media at JNIMS morgue, M Rajen, uncle of the deceased woman alleged that Subhashini consumed poison after a quarrel with her husband on June 1 at around 9 am following which, the husband’s family rushed her to the nearby Yairipok community health centre.

He alleged that the doctors at the CHC after providing her with some immediate treatment, referred her to RIMS; however the same day, her husband and his family took her back home instead of taking her to RIMS as advised by the doctor.

Owing to the failure to take her to RIMS, her conditioned deteriorated, but instead of taking her to the hospital, her husband and his family kept her at home the whole day and only took her on June 3 to RIMS, he lamented.

She was further taken to Shija Hospital, where the doctors said it was too late for treatment as none of the medicines were affecting her, he said and continued that her husband’s family took her home the same day and she succumbed this morning around 9:30am.

Continuing his allegation, he said that Subashini used to return to her parental home frequently unable to bear her husband’s and other family members’ harassment.

He also alleged that the deceased used to come back frequently due to the harassment from her husband and other family members and before the incident on May 1, Janaki the mother in law had come to fetch Subhashini and taken her back to her husband house`s from her maternal place where she had been staying for over one month, he said.

The deceased is survived by three children including two boys and a girl from her marriage with M Ingoucha.
