CB police nabbed one in Paikmal gang-rape

The crime branch police have succeeded to arrest one of the accused person in the Paikmal gang rape incident just after 30 days to the incident from Raipur town on Wednesday. The other accused persons are still at large. But with the arrest of one accused person, the CB police are hopeful to nab other accused persons soon. The incident occurred on 11th last month and government decided to hand over the case after the local police failed to nab the accused persons. The police have identified the accused as Gunanidhi Nag.
“We got the information of the accused person Gunanidhi Nag from a tip off .and arrested him from Raipur (Chhatishgarh) Wednesday and forwarded him on the same day to the judicial custody”, DSP (crime branch) PK Panda told.
According to him the accused Gunanidhi went to Raipur soon after the incident and was working in a chicken-farm as attainder. He tried to hide himself after seeing the police but finally he was caught. It was a major achievement for us as this would lead us to nab other accused persons soon”, Panda added.
It may be informed that a 24 years unmarried Dalit girl of Bhukhamunda under Paikmal police station of the Bargarh district had been to Paikmal block office on Monday (11th May) after the chairman Mahesh Agrawal assured her an employment of Anganwadi. But Agrawal allegedly directed her to accompany one Gananidhi Nag, who took her to a go-down of one Sajan Agrawal where Sajan and Pintu Pradhan were waiting them. All three had allegedly raped her in the godown one after another and threatened her to do away with her life if she opened her mouth. Police registered case against the accused persons including the block chairman Mahesh Agrawal after receiving complaint from the victim. But police did not take immediate step to arrest the accused persons because of their political connection. The alleged hand of the tribal minister Bijay Ranjan Singh Bariha to shield the accused persons because of his relation with the block chairman Mahesh Agrawal has prompted CM Naveen Naveen Patnaik to hand over the case to the CB police in order to save his government from possible attack by the opposition.
