Imphal, September 28 2017:
In yet another tragic incident, a case was filed against a woman from North East on alleged burglary without providing any evidence .
According to a statement issued by Manipur Students' Association, Delhi (MSAD), the victim, who is a nurse at Handa Nursing Home, was accused of burglary by one landlord in Rajouri Garden, West Delhi .
The incident happened in the first week of September after the servant of the said landlord was admitted in Handa Nursing Home.
The servant was first blamed by the cruel landowner for the robbery which they later shifted the blame on the nurse from NE, MSAD said .
More disheartening is the biased act of police in the investigation.
The maid has already confessed of being the culprit.
The story was later cooked up and the maid said that the stolen jewellery was handed to the nurse whom she met during her treatment .
Instead of trying to find out the factual information of her statement, the police along with the family started harassing NE sisters.
A group of 7 nurses from NE were tortured by the localities calling them thieves and were insulted .
A group of locals came down to the hostel where the girls are residing at night and hurled verbal abuses and racist comments, it said .
MSAD once again condemned the racist attitude of the police and the locals of Rajouri Garden .
MSAD has immediately informed the matter to NE cells and all authorities concerned working for NE people.
Unfortunately, there was no proper action.
The barbaric act was also reported in some mainstream media.
The victim sadly remarked that 'Her only false is being born in NE in such a racist place like India' .
