Tolerance towards sexual abuse is one thing that every woman should never have. But ending a life due to the same may not be the best solution for it as well. A woman from Bhayander has been arrested along with her first born for murdering the younger step-child.
Initially once the body was found, the mother failed to identify the body. Later after investigation, it was found that Rajni, didn’t file an FIR as the son usually used to work over-time in the factory and not return.
After further pressurizing they found out that the mother Rajni, 55, was fed up being sexually assaulted by the step son Ramcharan, 22 for over 6 months.
As reported by TOI, Ramcharan also apparently sexually abused many of the female relatives as well. Rajni asked her son from her first marriage, Sitaram, 25, to finish off his step-brother Ramcharan Dwivedi, 22, for Rs 50,000.
The Valiv police in Vasai (east) found stab marks in the neck and began a murder investigation. The names ‘Ramcharan’ and ‘Rajni’ were tattooed on the arms. The police released photographs of the body across police stations in Palghar district, Thane, Mumbai and Navi Mumbai.

The cops were clueless for almost a month till finally last week a woman identified the body at Bhayander police station. After Rajni’s confession she was arrested on September 16.
Rajni told the police that Ramcharan was a habitual sexual offender, and had threatened her against disclosing it to his father Ramdas, who also works in a factory.
She added that Ramcharan had also attacked another woman relative, who had threatened to file a police case.
She could not take the torture when Ramcharan began abusing her regularly. She confided in Sitaram, and convinced him to get rid of Ramcharan. Sitaram had roped in his two friends and murdered him and dumped his body in the water.
Ramdas was in the dark and learned about the abuse and murder during the investigation. Rajni, Sitaram, Yadav and Mistry have been booked for murder and remanded in police custody till September 23.
What is scary is that many women in the country silently face such situation with the fear of bad name in the society. Women are taught to be at fault always even when a wrong doing is happening. But when the limit crosses, such drastic steps are taken. To avoid such situations, it’s best to take charge of the abuse at an earlier stage.

1) Have Courage
When you are not at fault, have the courage to stand up for yourself and your loved ones. No family member, situation or colleague can justify a sexual assault. Have the courage to say no or protect yourself. And if you weren’t able to stop, then have to courage to speak about it.
2) Speak to someone Trustworthy
Yes, this is a very personal and sensitive issue. So make sure the person you speak to is trustworthy. Get help, never shy away from asking help. It not only gives you more strength and courage but also you can punish the assaulter with proper help.
3) No Guilt Trip
No it is not your fault and it will never be. The biggest barrier in front of justice and mental freedom is your guilt. Society is made by both good and bad people and they judge even when their lives are at stake. So no point ruining your life and being guilty or fearful of what others will think.
