ntouched by the horror the 19- year old girl went through
before dying, amidst waves of anger and discontent among
people against inaction of the state government, there is float-
ed the conspiracy theory. The course is settled. Finance capi-
tal has been making moves to cover its steps. With 21 FIRs,
and still more coming against any protest, the attempt is to take the con-
spiracy theory to a level of frenzy, making it easier to crush the opposi-
tion, gag the media. The incident that was called 'shocking' and
'unprecedented' by the Supreme Court took place in a village called
Boolgarhi, in Hathras town of Uttar Pradesh. A 19-year old Dalit girl was
attacked by four men from upper caste. They tore at her, raped and
cracked her neck when she tried to escape from the extreme humilia-
tion. They splintered her spine also. Finally they left her groaning and
devastated. It was September 11, 2020. Her family took her to the police
station, but she was in no condition to make a statement. Stunned, she
needed time to fathom what happened to her. They said it was her
drama, but then she even took her last breath playing the act, taking
their sarcasm to the ultimate. Some of the ruling party functionaries in
the state made a video, which was illegal as exposing a victim is against
law, and tried to prove that she was not molested, since she did not
speak, but the transcription of her statement to the magistrate leaves no
confusion. They had taken advantage of her being a Dalit, that made her
vulnerable, and then they had taken advantage of her being a woman… a
crime in practice for centuries. On September 22, she made her dying
statement in front of a magistrate, which said she was raped, assaulted
brutally. She even named all the four accused. On September 29, she
succumbed to the injuries inflicted on her. The news spread like wild
fire, dominating the scene, and not allowing the curtain to be drawn.
