Hospital and received stitches for the hand wounds.<br />

Dutta’s son lodged a complaint with the Murshidabad PS. The police registered the case on 21<br />

March 2007.<br />

Dutta’s neighbors, along with some local leaders, and Dr. Bibhas Mukharjee of Lalbagh S.D.<br />

Hospital conspired to discharge Minu from the hospital before her treatment was complete.<br />

Murshidabad PS police officers only arrested Dutta’s neighbors, despite that fact that his relatives<br />

release, the neighbor and his family continue to issue threats to Dutta and his family. Several<br />

subsequent complaints filed with the Murshidabad PS have not been pursued by the police.<br />
