A 19 year old teenage rape survivor was chased and hacked to death in Uttar Pradesh on Tuesday. The incident happened in broad daylight at Kaushambi district. The culprits were the man who was accused of raping the victim and his brother – Ashok and Pawan Nishad. The accused was released on bail for few days before committing the brutal murder.
The woman was butchered with axe on the main road of her village while the scared villagers became helpless onlookers. Pawan Nishad was accused of raping the diseased woman before three years when she was a minor and has been harassing her to drop the case against her, said police.
Pawan’s brother Ashok Nishad was released form jail less than two days ago. He is an accuse of another murder case. When both the brothers was let out from jail, they plotted to confront the family of the victim and force them to call back the case. When the woman refused to step back, the brothers butchered her while she was returning from grazing her family’s cattle. Both the accused are on the run, as said by police.

The woman’s body was sent to post-mortem. The brutal murder has triggered the predictable political row in the BJP ruled state. The opposition party, Congress’ state office has posted a short video of police covering the woman’s body on X (formerly twitter).
कौशाम्बी में सरेआम दो दरिंदों ने युवती की कुल्हाड़ी से काटकर हत्या कर दी।
इनमें से एक दरिंदा हत्या के मामले में अभी 2 दिन पहले ही जमानत पर बाहर आया था। तो दूसरा इसी मृतक युवती के रेप का आरोपी था।
UP में दरिंदे इस कदर बेखौफ़ हैं कि उनके मन में किसी कानून का कोई भय नहीं। कोई… pic.twitter.com/P5eligfE6T

The post read, “two brutes publicly killed a girl by cutting her with an axe. One criminal had come out on bail just two days ago in a murder case. The other was accused of raping the same diseased girl”. The party further added that the criminals in Uttar Pradesh do not have fear of any law nor do they have any respect and put forward the question, “when will the darkness of this dark city go away?”.
UP’s record of crime against women is higher than in any other states. According to data obtained by National Crime Bureau, over 56,000 cases of crimes against women were recorded in UP alone. The crimes included, rape and murder, rape and acid attacks.
