In April 2016 a 20yo young woman went missing in North East India. She was last spotted leaving a beauty salon which was her place of work.

Her parents reported her disappearance to the police.

Some local kids later spotted a body floating in the Dihing River. Authorities stated that it was the missing girl.

There was signs of rape (precise cause of death not given but you'd assume strangulation) and she'd been burned and dumped in the river.

Two men have been charged with her death and arrested.

Her Student Union - appears she was at college - want the killers to receive a "very strong punishment".

Tragic incident.

let me add something for you Sharon;


A 20-year-old resident of the Margherita town in the Tinsukia district of Assam, went missing on 28 April.

Her family raised an alarm after she failed to return from the beauty parlour where she used to work. Days later, local boys spotted an object floating in the Dihing River near Lama Gaon and informed the police.

On 3 May, her charred and decomposed body was recovered from the river. It was found that she had been kidnapped and raped, after which an unsuccessful attempt was made to burn her body before it was dumped into the river.

According to reports in Assam media, the police have arrested two youths of Ledo region. They have been charged under sections 366,376 and 342/34 of the IPC.

The case has created ripples across Assam, where a number of candlelight marches and protests have been taken out against demanding strict action against the accused. The All Assam Gorkha Students’ Union (Union) also called for a 12-hour shutdown in Tinsukia district to protest the incident.

The incident has also sparked a debate around the coverage received by the North-East region in the national media.

Incidentally, a 30-year-old Dalit student of law from Kerala was found raped and murdered in her home in Perumbavoor in Ernakulam. The case received national attention, with many calling the victim Kerala’s Nirbhaya.

In an eerie similarity, both cases received national media coverage and police scrutiny only days after the crimes occurred.

While speaking to Catch, Nanda Kirati Diwan, social activist and Central Executive Member All Assam Gorkha Students’ Union said, This is the rarest of the rare crimes still there has been no coverage around it in the national media.

This is also reflective of the negligence which the North-East region has been facing in general as far as the media coverage is concerned.

I think it's normally policy to leave victims names out of this.
