It has been 5 days today since 24-year-old Anandi Devi Saday of Jagatpur Donwari tol located in Navrajpur rural municipality-3 of Siraha was found dead hanging in her house. However, no one has been arrested in this incident so far.

Anandi was gang-raped by 22-year-old Sanjeev Kumar Yadav and 32-year-old Shyamsunder Yadav in the mango orchard of the village. In the case of sexual abuse, a case has been registered against both the accused in the police under the title of forced labor industry. However, District Police Office, Siraha claims that it is difficult to arrest them as they fled to India. "They are said to have fled to India," Siraha police chief Anantaram Sharma said, "we are looking for them."

Anandi's family filed a complaint at the local police office, Maheshpur Patar on the same day of the incident. However, based on the complaint of the victim, instead of proceeding with the legal action process, an attempt was made to settle the incident in the village through financial transactions. Accused Sanjeev's father Upendra and Shyamsundar's father Shivdutt, Narendra Yadav, who is also a government teacher, went to the victim's house and threatened to take two lakh rupees and file a case against Nami. Not only this, the police also tried to settle the incident by canceling the complaint that had already been registered. Almost a month after the complaint was filed, it was registered on January 4 and canceled again the next day, trying to settle the incident.

According to Biltoun, the mother of the deceased Anandi, the police canceled the complaint saying that 'nothing can happen now' and told them to take some money in the village and settle down. 'When we refused, the police repeatedly tried to trick us and even abused us,' she says, 'but we refused.'

After the family of the victim was not ready to meet and warned to go to the media, the police filed a complaint for the second time on February 25, two and a half months after the incident. However, after the accused of the incident was not arrested, Anandi, who was under mental stress, was found dead on the 2nd of last year.

Although they say that they are looking for two accused of sexual abuse in this incident, the police have not brought the perpetrators and the police involved in suppressing the incident to the legal scope. 

The police say that no other complaint has come from the victim's family and they are investigating the incident on their own. He said that during the

investigation, if the victim's family reveals more about the incident in the statement, those things will also be included. However, when the chief of police of Siraha said this, the victim's family is afraid to join the legal process.

Instead of giving justice to the victim, he frustrated them by entangling them and because of this, the victim was forced to die last Friday  Dalit leaders and legal practitioners discussed with the victim's family the issue of filing a complaint against suicide threats and settlement transactions. In which the father of both the accused, the local Narendra Yadav, Chief Police Inspector of Maheshpur Patar Police Ravinraj Mainali and the issue of filing a complaint against the police of the district were discussed. However, the victim's family was not ready for this.

The spokesperson of Nepal Rashtriya Musahar Sangh said Sunil Sada, the spokesperson of the Nepal National Musahar Association, said that the victims were very scared and they did not seem positive to proceed with the legal action process. According to him, the police visited the victim's home from time to time and told them not to file any complaint, while the perpetrators also threatened them.

'We had prepared to take the victim to the district police office on the same day to file a complaint,' he said, 'but, as the victim's family was not ready, we returned disappointed.

Based on the fact that all the evidence has been made public, the police should show proactivity and arrest all those trying to solve the incident and proceed with the investigation, he said.

Biltoun, the mother of the deceased, said that they did not dare to take legal action because they were weak people. He complains that after the incident, the perpetrators are roaming around the village carelessly and this is making them feel more insecure.
