Kicked on chest, beaten up at Odisha police station: Army officer's fiancée

New Delhi: The fiancée of an Army officer, who alleged sexual assault at a police station in Bhubaneswar, gave horrific details of the attack she suffered at the station, India Today reported.

She claimed she was stripped and beaten up by police officers and they stamped on her chest and pulled her hair.

The woman and her partner went to the station to file a complaint against some miscreants for waylaying them on September 15, when she faced the assault.

Speaking to India Today TV, the woman recounted her experience alleging that ‘My tooth fell off and was flung out by a female officer’, adding that her pants were pulled down and her ‘bare chest was stamped and pumped for 20 minutes by the male officer’.

Rather than getting protection from the police station, she said she found herself at the mercy of them.

Expanding on the reason for the attack, the woman said she had pointed out to them what wrong they were doing which she believed might have triggered them.

Remaining defiant, the woman said she did not care the campaigning against her adding that ‘It is the easiest thing to assassinate the character of a woman’.

Questioning the moral policing she asked “Is having two drinks a crime in India?"

As she was arrested by the police, the Orissa High Court granted her bail on September 19.

It is reported that the Odisha government ordered a judicial inquiry into the incident, alongside suspending five officers including the Inspector-in-charge of Bharatpur Police Station.
