Police, Ultadanga, Kolkata<br />
Date of incident : 11/02/2007 and subsequently<br />
Victim Fatema Khatun, age 13, was a maidservant. She helped her family members, including<br />
her mother Shahanara Bibi, who suffers from various diseases and could not work regularly as<br />
a rag picker.<br />
On 11 February 2007, Shahanara Bibi scolded her daughter Fatema over a petty family issue.<br />
Fatema Khatun left her house in the morning for her usual work, but went first to her uncle’s house<br />
and then decided to go to her aunt’s house, in Lakshikantapur, South 24 Parganas District.<br />
After three days, Fatema Khatun’s aunt came to Fatema Khatun’s house and informed Shahanara<br />
Bibi that Fatema Khatun had not reached Lakshikantapur. Shahanara Bibi searched for Fatema<br />
Khatun at her relative’s houses and elsewhere, but could not find her.<br />
On 17 February 2007, Shahanara Bibi went to the Ultadanga PS to lodge a missing diary, but the<br />
duty officer refused to accept it. He advised Shahanara Bibi to lodge a complaint with the<br />
Government Railway Police Station at Dumdum or the Railway Protection Force at Sealdah<br />
instead.<br />
On 21 February 2007, Shahanara Bibi again went to lodge a complaint at the Ultadanga PS. SI<br />
Annapurna Sarkar refused to register any missing diary, instead ordering Shahanara Bibi to<br />
bring Jasimuddin to the police station and promising to take action thereafter.
