New Delhi: More than 15 days since the tragic death of three minor sisters in the Bhandara rape and murder case, no arrests have been made yet. Members of the National Commission for Women (NCW) were at Bhandara on Thursday and met the victims' mother.
NCW member Nirmala Samant has admitted that the police is insensitive and clueless. "The police is clueless. Because there is no eye witness. There is so much outrage in this village but still the witnesses are not coming forward," said Nirmala.
The family has claimed that the police refused to file a case for several days. Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde is expected to give a statement on Friday.
The three sisters aged 6, 8 and 11 had gone missing on the afternoon of February 14. Their bodies were found in a well barely two kilometres from their house on February 16. Preliminary post-mortem had confirmed that the girls were raped before being murdered. Two weeks later, the police has more questions than answers.
The girls were neither strangled to death, nor were they poisoned. Even the medical analysis so far has failed to pin point the exact cause of death. According to some villagers, they were last seen in a Maruti van. But the Police still have no clue who was in it and to whom it belonged.
Eight youngsters from a nearby village were under the scanner but even they have been ruled out after a thorough interrogation. More than 150 people have already been questioned and innumerable examinations of the well where the bodies were dumped have yielded no answers. For the bereaved mother of the victims, the trauma continues unabated.
