Dalit seeks CM help to solve niece's murder


The father of a Dalit woman, who allegedly slapped a policeman during
her attempt to meet Mayawati on her visit to Salempur police station
in Deoria district yesterday, hoped the chief minister would help
solve his niece's murder.

Ramashish was upset with the police for not properly handling the case
of his niece Priyanka, who was kidnapped and later found dead near his
village Virajmar in the last week of November.

He, along with his 20-year-old daughter Baby, managed to meet Mayawati
on the premises of Salempur police station yesterday after a clash
with the policemen there. "I tried my best to communicate with the
Chief Minister about the murder of my niece in November. I had
contacted all the local BSP leaders to get justice. As the BSP has its
own channels, I first approached the block committee, then assembly
committee and then faxed my application to different addresses in the
administration. None paid any attention. Thus I had decided to meet
the CM at any cost during her visit to Salempur police station,"
Ramashish said.

According to him, his daughter Baby had accompanied him to the police
station. "I requested the policemen to allow at least my daughter to
meet Behenji. They denied any such opportunity. My daughter defied
them and tried to enter the police station. A police officer dragged
her by her hair. She slapped him on his face." Ramashish said. He
could not identify the policeman, though. "Perhaps he was officer."

The clash with the policemen drew the attention of the chief minister,
who was sitting in a room. "The CM saw her (Baby) and asked the
policemen to allow her in. She met her and told her about my niece. I
confirmed that I was accompanying the girl. This is how they
(policemen) took me to the CM and I narrated my problem," Ramashish
said. He said his niece Priyanka was on her way home after attending a
marriage ceremony, when she was "kidnapped".

"We tried our best to trace Priyanka. However, she could not be found.
I sought help at Salempur police station. The policemen did not hear
our plea. Finally her body was recovered on November 24," Ramashish
claimed. "Since the matter in the CM's knowledge, I hope the police
will tell us about the killer of our Priyanka," he said.
