Bagmati, Chitawan, Madi, Ward 6

Two girls died under mysterious circumstances in Chitwan district on Saturday. The deceased have been identified as 10-year-old Deepika Sunar and 11-year-old Deepsila Pariyar, both residents of Ramrajyapur in Madi-6 of the district. The victim families, with the help of local rights activists, filed a complaint at District Police Office on Sunday saying that one of the girls was raped before murder. The girls had gone to attend a picnic programme with friends. But later they were found submerged at Majuwa pond and stains of blood were seen in their eyes and private parts. The girls later died while being rescued to hospital for treatment. The victim families say the deaths can’t be accepted as natural and lodged a police complaint seeking investigation into the matter. Meanwhile, it has been learnt that police have arrested two suspects and started investigation. Right activists have urged the police to identify the culprit and provide justice to the victim families. Traces of blood and wounds were found on Pariyar’s body. “The drowned person body looks swollen but no such symptoms were seen,” said Pariyar’s Uncle Kumar Pariyar. “We suspect the bodies were thrown in pond after the rape and murder.” “Looking at the deaths, we suspect the bodies were thrown into the water after crime,” said Mina Kharel, chairperson of Adarsha Nari Bikas Kendra, a rights organisation working for women in the district. “We have piled pressure on the authority for fair investigation.” More than a dozen of rights groups and organisations have sought investigation into the death citing it mysterious. The deceased bodies have been kept at Bharatpur Hospital. Police Chief SP Deepak Thapa said an investigating team has been formed led by inspector Anjana Shrestha to probe into the matter. “The team will begin investigation after receiving postmortem report,” said Thapa. चितवनको माडी–६ रामराज्यपुरकी ११ वर्षीया दीपशिला परियार र १० वर्षकी दीपिका सुनारको शनिबार शंकास्पद मृत्यु भएको छ । दुईमध्ये एकको बलात्कारपछि हत्या गरिएको भन्दै पीडित परिवारले अधिकारकर्मीको पहलमा छानबिनका लागि आइतबार जिल्ला प्रहरीमा जाहेरी दिएका छन् । पोखरीमा डुबेको अवस्थामा दुवैलाई फेला पारे पनि बालिकाको शरीर, आँखा र यौनांगबाट रक्तस्राव देखिएको छ । यसलाई भवितव्य मृत्यु स्वीकार्न नसक्ने भन्दै पीडितले थप अनुसन्धानका लागि जाहेरी दिएको बताए । प्रहरीले घटनामा संलग्न भएको आशंकामा २ जनालाई पक्राउ गरी अनुसन्धान थालेको जनायो । साथीसित पिकनिक गएका बेला दीपशिला र दीपिकालाई नजिक मजुवा पोखरीमा डुबेको अवस्थामा फेला पारी उद्धार गरिएको थियो । घटनापछि अनुसन्धान थालेर संलग्नको खोजी, पीडितलाई न्याय महसुस गराउन र कानुनी राज्य स्थापित गर्न प्रशासनसमक्ष मानव अधिकारकर्मीले आग्रह गरेका छन् । बालिकाको उद्धार गरी उपचाका लागि ल्याउँदै गर्दा एकको माडी र अर्कीको भरतपुरमा मृत्यु भएको प्रहरीले जनायो । दीपशिलाको आँखा, यौनांग र शरीरका केही भागमा चोट देखिएकाले घटना रहस्यमय बनेको हो । ‘डुबेको मानिसको लास ढाडिन्छ, पानी खाएको हुन्छ, त्यस्तो अवस्था पनि देखिएन,’ दीपशिलाका काका कुमार परियारले भने, ‘बलात्कारपछि हत्या गरी पोखरीमा फालिएको हुन सक्छ ।’ जिल्ला प्रहरीमा भेटिएका दीपिकाका बाबु दुर्गाले छोरीको मृत्यु डुबेर भएको भन्ने अवस्था नरहेको प्रतिक्रिया दिए । ‘प्रकृति हेर्दा कसैले आपराधिक घटना गराई पोखरीमा फालेको हुन सक्छ,’ आदर्श नारी विकास केन्द्रकी निमित्त अध्यक्ष मीना खेरलले भनिन्, ‘घटनाको सत्यतथ्य अनुसन्धान हुनुपर्छ भनेर दबाब दिएका छौं ।’ उनीलगायत एक दर्जन अधिकारकर्मी संघसंस्थाले घटना रहस्यमय भएकाले छानबिन माग गरेका छन् । प्रहरी प्रमुख एसपी दीपक थापाले दुवैको मृत्यु वा हत्या भन्ने विषयमा छानबिन गर्न प्रहरी निरीक्षक अञ्जना श्रेष्ठको नेतृत्वमा टोली गठन गरिएको बताए ।
