Girl stripped. Then the cover up began.

In Guwahati, a girl was molested, stripped, brutalized with cigarette burns for about an hour by a crowd of at least 20, outside a pub, even as a media crew continued filming. When the footage went viral, some four days later, a sordid drama unfolded.

Sickening disgusting video of sexual assault in Guwahati. Who on earth recorded the video? Why did he/she not help the girl?

By this time, people were beginning to question why did the media crew not intervene or help. It clearly looked like they weren't even trying. But by this time, Sagarika Ghose had regained her composure. The truth had been pushed behind by the journalist and political hack: Courageous of cameramen to

shoot Guwahati's horror.Fact that camera on them shd have deterred the thugs. Incredible that they carried on..
Is that really what had happened? A brutal mob continued attacking the girl while brave cameramen filmed at the risk of being harmed themselves? The real story was actually quite different. The girl had gone to the pub with her friends. There was a fracas of some sort in the pub itself, but they left the pub. A photo journalist from News Live Assam (whose crew eventually shot the entire attack), Gauravjyoti Neog, was present at the pub along with a Youth Congress worker, Amarjyoti Kalita who is close to the state Youth Congress president Pijush Hazarika . News Live Assam is owned by wife of Assam Congress Health Minister, Riniki Bhuyan Sarma. Her brother Atanu Bhuyan is the current editor-in-chief. Once the girl came out with her friends, the youth was apparently filming them. This led to a confrontation. The cameraman then initiated the molestation and instigated a

crowd which had by then gathered there. Meanwhile, they had also called their news offices who sent more crew. By the time the crew arrived, it appears that they had decided to "profit" from the video footage. Clearly the crowd could act brazenly because they probably thought they had the protection of a Congress mouthpiece powerful TV channel and also member(s) of Youth Congress. The "non-intervention due to possible physical harm" argument is further weakened because an editor of a local daily actually intervened and tried to save the girl. It was Mukul Kalita's account that further proves the attackers had powerful political connections. THEY PREVENTED THE POLICE FROM TAKING AWAY THE GIRL and CONTINUED TO MOLEST HER. That's how brazen they were. Now, let's take a look at Atanu Bhuyan (editor-in-chief, News Live, Assam) to understand just how shamelessly and brazenly the incident was exploited. The video went viral or four days while Bhuyan gloated and counted TRPs.

TRP : ramdhenu : 25.35, prime news : 26.69, newstime assam : 25.82, dy 365 : 154.69, rang : 169.79 and newslive 270.76.
By this time, the news of Youth Congress involvement had gone viral with Tehelka and several news websites (including IBN Hindi) reporting involvement of Congress and complicity of the Congress owned TV channel. News of Youth Congress involvement caused wannabes and charlatans to jump in. Though tweets were deleted, but essentially this creature was all sarcasm at the news of the "kidnap". Upon being confronted, she used the bogey of "naming the victim" and continued hyperventilating on that. No mention of Youth Congress still. Sack Tarun Gogoi, Congress CM of Assam.
