Prime Minister

Government of India



Dear Dr. Singh,





On 10th September 2011 Shrimati Deovari Basumatary wife of Amal Basumatary
of village No 1 Sonapur under Bismuri Police station in the Kokrajhar
District of Assam was gang raped by SSB jawans in the night of 10th
September.



It is extremely shocking that Shrimati Deobari Basumatary who is both deaf
and dumb was raped in front of her husband; we hope you could understand the
magnitude of this bestiality. This act also pales the stories of medieval
barbarism.



All these happen in the din of India being the world’s largest democracy and
an emerging economic power house.



This incident exposes the criminality and insensivity of the armedforces,
the political executive and the degeneration of India’s state apparatus year
after the brutal rape and Murder of Monarama devi which created an National
and International outcry the woman in North East were outraged that shocking
the conscience demonstrated naked before the army headquarters. The killing
machines of the arm forces in the north east were neither ashamed nor
shocked.



"Indian civilization* *has been degraded to abysmal depths by the atrocious
behaviour of the Armed forces in the north east under the protection of
Armed forces special powers Act, against the protest against this Act by the
people of the region."



We demand immediate arrest of the SSB Jawans booked for tape and tried in a
fast track court. And repeal the armed forces special power act in Kashmir
and North East.
