Uttar Pradesh: 15 bitten by stray dogs in Sitapur, CM Yogi Adityanath issues directives to forest department, district administration

Around 15 people, including 7 children have been bitten by stray dogs in the last 24 hours in the Khairabad area of Uttar Pradesh’s Sitapur district. The families of these dog attack victims rushed the injured to Khairabad community health centre (CHC) for treatment. As per reports, the residents of Lalipur town cornered a stray dog that had been attacking children and beat the dog to death.

The injured have been discharged from Khairabad community health centre (CHC) after receiving treatment. CHC Superintendent Ramashankar Yadav mentioned that over the past month, 106 individuals have received rabies injections at the health centre. 

The victims of the stray dog attacks are Rehan, 9-year-old boy and a resident of Kulhan Sarai; Mahendra (7), Shivani (10), residents of Kajiara; Altama (10), a resident of Miyan Sarai; Mohammad Kaif, (11), a resident of Sheikh Sarai; Ritesh, (4) ; Mohammed Sohail, (32) , a resident of Miyan Sarai; Abrar Ahmed, (32); Brajesh Kumar, (38); Kashiram, (27); Ramendra Shukla (69) and more. 

According to reports, all attempts that were made to contact the District Magistrate of Sitapur proved futile. Municipal EO Prem Shankar Gupta noted that a team from Lucknow will be summoned to capture stray dogs. As far as reports are concerned, six years ago, in 2017-18, dogs had unleashed terror after they attacked children in Mahsingpur, Budhanpur, Chaubeypur, Peepur, Tikariya and Gurpaliya villages in the Khairabad block of Sitapur. 

During 2017-18, 14 innocent children lost their lives due to dog attacks and 75 other people were injured by these canines. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath took cognisance of the issue and issued directives to the forest department and district administration to apprehend the strayt dogs, during that time. Consecutively, several dogs were captured by the special team of dog catchers from Lucknow.

A 16-year-old Dalit girl who was allegedly raped by a man in Uttar Pradesh’s Pratapgarh has died during treatment at a hospital, police said on Friday.

Additional Superintendent of Police (West) Sanjay Rai said the teenager was held hostage and raped on Sunday last week.

“The accused tied her hands and mouth and left her in a millet field in a seriously injured state. She was admitted to the SRN Hospital in Prayagraj where she was undergoing treatment and passed away last evening,” Rai said.

On the complaint of the victim’s mother, the police had registered a case against accused Anil Gupta under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the SC-ST Prevention of Atrocities Act, and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences Act, he said.

The 22-year-old accused was arrested on Monday after a gunfight with the police, they said. Murder charges have also been added to the case, police added. The body was returned to family after conducting the post-mortem, PTI reported.

In another incident from Uttar Pradesh’s Kaushambi in November last year, a 19-year-old woman was hacked to death in broad daylight by two brothers, including the man accused of raping her.

According to reports, the woman butchered with an axe on the main road as scared villagers watched helplessly. Pawan Nishad was accused of raping her three years ago, when she was a minor. Reports said that Pawan and his associates had been harassing the woman, since then, to get her to drop the case lodged against him.

Pawan’s brother, Ashok Nishad, was an accused in a separate murder case and was released less than two days before the young woman’s murder. The officials explained that Pawan was out of jail by this time and the two plotted to confront the woman’s family and force them to close the case.

According to reports, the 26-year-old woman was brought to India from Nepal 13 years ago under false pretenses of finding employment and was subsequently forced into marriage and converted to the accused’s religion.

The woman recently shared her ordeal at a local meeting organised against religious conversion by Hindu organisations.

The 26-year-old described how the accused befriended her while concealing his identity and lured her to India with promises of employment. Once in India, she was subjected to repeated sexual assault and threats.

The case was registered based on a complaint filed by the victim late on Monday evening, as per the report.

The Crime Inspector at Puranpur Police Station Gajendra Singh said the victim has alleged that she was forced to marry, and was physically and mentally harassed by her in-laws.

The police are currently investigating the matter to gather further evidence and ensure justice for the victim.

Last month in a separate incident, sixteen people were arrested after a video of a woman being harassed on a flooded road in Uttar Pradesh’s Lucknow went viral on the internet. Following the incident, the government transferred three senior police officers and suspended five police personnel, including a Station House Officer.

According to reports, the incident occurred in a general coach of the Howrah-Amritsar Mail in the morning near Bilpur station, which falls under the Moradabad division.

An official of the Northern Railway stated that passengers pulled the alarm chain for an emergency stop and jumped out of the train in panic while it was still moving. The official added that 12 passengers were injured.

Panic erupted at Bilpur station in Bareilly when a rumor circulated that the train had caught fire upon arrival. In response, the emergency chain was pulled, slowing down the train. Some passengers, fearing for their safety, jumped off the train while it was still in motion.

GRP station in-charge, Rehan Khan, confirmed that six passengers, including two women, were injured in the chaos. They were promptly taken to Shahjahanpur Medical College for treatment. The injured individuals were identified as Anwari (26), Akhtari (45), Kuldeep (26), Ruby Lal (50), Shiv Sharan (40), and Chandrapal (35).

Initially, Northern Railway spokesperson Kultar Singh reported 12 passengers were injured, but the GRP later clarified the actual number of injuries.
