PATHANAMTHITTA: The revelation made by a girl student in Pathanamthitta about enduring years of sexual torture from 64 people was sickening and took away all senses of propriety. On Monday, 15 more people were arrested in the case. With this, the total number of arrests reached 43.

The molestation incident came to light during an awareness class conducted by the Kudumbashree District Mission. The counsellor was shocked to hear the incident narrated by the girl, who was also an athlete. It was in December that the class was conducted on the subject of Adolescent Health Education under the leadership of the Gender Resource Center in the victim’s college.

During this time, the girl was battling mental stress after knowing that her friends saw her private video, which was spread through the internet by the accused. After the class, the girl approached the counsellor and revealed the ghastly episode of torture. The counsellor was left dazed hearing the details. The revelation of 64 people sexually assaulting the victim seemed far-fetched. However, the information was forwarded to the Snehita Gender Help Desk. A psychologist was summoned and the girl repeated the same ghastly story of assault. Immediately, the report was forwarded to the CWC.
