Hospital Employee Arrested For Allegedly Raping Minor Girl’s Dead Body

In a shocking case of necrophilia, an employee of Assam’s Karimganj Civil Hospital was arrested on Sunday. According to the police the man allegedly raped a minor girl’s corpse at the mortuary of a government-run hospital in Assam’s Karimganj district. The police further stated that the accused has been identified as Anju Rabidas aged 38 years old. Rabidas was a sweeper at the hospital and at the time of interrogation, he allegedly confessed to his involvement in the incident.

The girl had reportedly, died by suicide on Friday. The Authorities had promptly responded to the information by the girl’s family, with the police and a magistrate arriving at the scene to recover the body. The body was then sent to the morgue in a civil hospital in Karimganj for a post-mortem. However, the post-mortem could not be conducted since it was dark by the time the body reached the morgue, and the post-mortem was delayed to the following morning.

“The body was kept at the mortuary of Karimganj Civil Hospital to conduct a post-mortem the next day. When doctors came to the mortuary for a post-mortem, they found some injury marks in her body and informed us, which was completely opposite from the report of the executive magistrate,” said Partha Pratim Das, Superintendent of Police of Karimganj District. “During further inquiry, we apprehended the duty sweeper named Anju Rabi Das and he confessed that he committed sexual activities with the dead body. Accordingly, we have registered a case and we sent the dead body to Silchar Medical College and Hospital for further forensic examination.”
