Narengi College Student Escapes Rape Attempt in Guwahati

February 23, 2017: Crime against women has increased lately despite tall claims of ensuring security by the State government. After the recent menace of masked molesters in Jorhat, this time it was the turn of Guwahati to be shamed. In a shocking incident, a student of Narengi College was molested by two miscreants at Ganesh Nagar of Bhawanipur in Narengi.

The victim who lodged a complaint with the Noonmati police disclosed that the miscreants even dragged her to an isolated and attempted rape. However, the duo fled when the victim raised an alarm.

However, the Noonmati police freed the accused duo triggering reactions. The victim is a 5th semester student of the Narengi College.

Earlier, when a girl in Jorhat had alleged sexual harassment by a group of motorcycle-borne people, it became a rallying point for students and activists across the State, demanding security for women and arrest of the unidentified accused.
