An 18-year-old labourer of Lot 5 Yakusari North, Black Bush Polder, recently appeared at the Number 51 Magistrate’s Court to answer to the charge of rape committed on a 24-year-old school teacher of the said village.
The accused, Sunil Suedhar, listened to the charge which stated that between November 2 and November 3, last, at Lot 8 Yakusari Black Bush Polder, he engaged in sexual penetration with the school teacher without her consent.
He is set to return to court on November 21, 2017.
Meanwhile, relatives of the teacher are unhappy with the current proceedings. According to them, it is unfair that the alleged culprit will be released back into the village with his victim having to face him.
The teacher had told reporters that on Friday, two weeks ago just after midnight she was fast asleep with her five-year-old son when she awoke to an individual gripping her at the neck.
She disclosed that the individual who is a known ‘junkie’ around the village demanded that she remove her clothing and engage in sexual activity with him.
“I had my phone light on the bed and I cut it off but then I felt a knife at my throat.
I didn’t say anything to him, I just started to cry and then he gave me two slaps and then he took off my clothes and rape me”.
She had explained that the assault took place in the upper flat of their two-storied home. Her husband was not at home at the time of the assault he was in the backdam.
After he (rapist) left, I found a phone and I call me husband in the backdam and he come.
