Kolkata rape case: Accused Mishra's hypocrisy revealed
Monojit Mishra, an expelled leader of the Trinamool Congress Chhatra Parishad, has been arrested over a serious gangrape allegation from a 2023 college event in Kolkata.
Mishra is accused of attempting to rape a student while intoxicated and threatening her family if she resisted.
TL;DR
Accused once advocated death penalty for rapists
Ironically, Mishra had once pushed for the death penalty for rapists but now faces similar accusations himself.
After his June 30 arrest, police added charges like illegal confinement and making threats under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
The court has put him in police custody as investigations continue, with new testimonies bringing extra attention to the case.
