The Interrogation

“Who’s the leader of your gang ?”

“ I’d die before I’d confess to fuckers like you ”

“See those three men standing behind you ? They’ve made a lot of men cry before . They’ll crack your bones open and make sure that you never walk for the rest of your life . So, before I loose my head and hand you over to them , tell me , who is the leader of your gang ?   ”

“ Babu Bhaiya . “

“ Isn’t Babu Bhaiya leader of the local political party? ”

“ Hmm .”

“ Shouldn’t he protect women  instead of harassing them ?”

“ He protects the divine religion .  These shameless girls bring only destroy our religion . They deserved to be a lot more than harassed . They deserve to be raped !”

“ When did you join Babu Bhaiya ?”

“ A year ago .  Me and some of my classmates were in trouble after teasing a girl in front of my college . Babu Bhaiya got us out and showed us the divine  way .”

“  Who was your first victim? “

“ That same girl from my college . I remember  she was wearing a salwar day . She had worn her orna ( dupatta )  on her neck instead of her chest .  I could see her curves perfectly . That shameless girl didn't even try to hide them.…… She was asking for it . Me and Akash forced her into the storeroom   and raped her  .”

“And the authority didn’t take actions  ? ”

“ Nobody ever found out  . That bitch’s parents were too afraid to complain to the police . They moved away from the city a few day ’s  later .”

“ Weren’t you afraid  ? ”

“I'd be lying if I told you I didn't feel nervous. My hands almost shivered when I pulled her orna from her neck  . But let me tell you, revenge was sweet  . ”

“ You were caught harassing a girl in the crowd yesterday during the Boishakhi Mela . That too in the university   campus .Why did you harass her ?”

“ She wore her  white saree under her navel . Everyone was looking at her . I saw nothing but desire in her face.  She was a perfect 36-28-36 . All of us wanted her . But Babu Bhaiya gave her to me . I’m Babu Bhaiya’s  favorite  disciple.”

“And yet Babu Bhaiya fled the scene when you got caught .”

“If he gets caught , who’ll protect the society ? Mark my words , he’ll be back for me . And he’ll kill of all of you scums when he does . “

“ Did you know that Babu Bhaiya got caught at the same place an hour later ? “

“ He’ll get out . You don’t know his power  . ”

“ He was caught trying to rape a 16 year old girl . She was wearing a Hijab over her saree . Babu Bhaiya complained that her Hijab wasn’t covering enough of her face . He pulled her down from her rickshaw along with her friends and tore open their clothes in public . “

“ Babu Bhaiya knows what he’s doing . He was probably right about that girl and her friends”

“ The girl lived in Arambagh . Around where you live .”

 “ I don’t need to know the details. I believe in  Bhaiya .”

“ Her name is Asma ……. Asma Chowdhury .”

“Hahahaha!  You suck at lying you idiot ! Asma’s my sister ……   Babu Bhaiya would never have touched my sister .”

“ Apparently  that didn’t matter to your Babu Bhaiya .”

“ What’s your proof ? Show me !  ”



The interrogator stood up and  walked over to the small screen that went almost unnoticed by the rapist. He put the disk in and started the 7 minute long black and white  footage .

He waited for a few seconds as the  confident-smile on the rapists  face turned to shock. As he left the room, he heard the rapist fall down from his chair, crying and screaming for help in repentance   .   Babu Bhaiya wasn’t here to help him anymore………………..
