KOLKATA: If you are a pedestrian or use the public transport system, beware
of a gang of women that traps innocent people as molesters and extorts them.
At a time when sexual harassment cases are shaking the nation, this bunch of
women has seized upon the fear psychosis to make some quick money,
regardless of what effect it might have on women who are actually victims of
molestation and rape.
Such incidents have been reported over the past few weeks but no one had
dared go to police until the all-lady gang targeted a lawyer on Wednesday,
without realizing his wife was with him or that there were legal clerks
around as witnesses.
Lawyer Asim Kumar Maity was returning home when the incident occurred in the
busy Dalhousie area.
“It was around 5.30 pm, after the day’s work. I, my wife and some law-clerks
were looking for a taxi in front of Mughal Garden Restaurant. My wife was a
little away chatting with the law clerks. I had just had an altercation with
a cabby over refusal. All of sudden, a woman, who looked to be in her late
40s, swung towards me and held me by my collar. I was stunned. I had never
even dreamt of being in such a situation,” recounted Maity.
