[chottala.com] Sunil molested me:Taslima



Taslima tweets: Sunil molested me


 
Controversial writer Taslima Nasreen accused noted Indian writer Sunil Gangopadhyay on Monday of sexually harassing her.Taslima, who has been prevented by authorities from returning to Bangladesh for 18 years, brought the accusation on Twitter saying Sunil had "sexually harassed" her and many other young female authors and poets.

Sunil brushed off the allegations. He told bdnews24.com, "I am not giving a damn about this (allegation). She had said such things against several people in the past after coming to Kolkata . I am busy with my own work."

In her Twitter post, Taslima said on Monday: "My previous four tweets are only to prove that Sunil G is now lying in the media that he did not support the banning of Dwikhandito."

The third of her five autobiographical novels, Dwikhandito or Split in two, had touched off rowdy protests and a series of street fights in Kolkata in November 2007, forcing nervous West Bengal state authorities to ask her to get out of the city. Taslima decided to take out the pages of the book that had controversial remarks a month later.

When approached by bdnews24.com, Sunil Gangopadhyay said, " I am not taking this (allegations) seriously. She said these things against several persons at numerous times before after coming to Kolkata . I am busy with my own works."

The award-winning feminist writer tweeted: "Sunil Gangopadhyay is for book banning. He sexually harassed me & many other women. He is the President of the Sahitya Akademi. Shame shame!"

Further: "Sunil Gangopadhyay asked former WB govt to ban my book Dwikhandita. Now he is speaking against book banning. Such a hypocrite!… No Bengali has courage to tear off the mask of writer Sunil Gangopadhyay, the hypocrite and women abuser."

Taslima got a good deal of response to her tweet, prompting her to tweet back on Monday.One of her tweets read: "Reason Sunil Ganguly behind to ban my book, I was tearing off the masks of women abusers lyk (like) him. Sunil Gangapadhyay was the mastermind behind banning of my book Dwikhandita and my banishment from West Bengal."

In response, Sunil told The Statesman: "Why is she speaking out so late?" He said he isn't on Twitter, nor does he give any importance to such "baseless allegations".

"People tend to criticise good works more and praise less. I don't want to react on (to) this as it would give unnecessary importance to her blabber," he said.
There were diverse reactions to Taslima's tweet. One tweet asked why she is often the subject of alleged sexual harassment.

Taslima angered conservative Muslims with her writings and fled Bangladesh in 1994 after radical Muslims demanded her execution.She has been living in exile for the last 18 years after a fatwa was issued against her in Bangladesh for her writings criticising Islam.

Taslima, who had been in Kolkata since 2003, became a hot political issue for New Delhi with the Hindu nationalist opposition accusing the government of pandering to Muslim minorities by trying to get her out of the country.

She fled Bangladesh for the first time in 1994 when a court said she had "deliberately and maliciously" hurt Muslims' religious feelings with her Bengali-language novel "Lajja", or "Shame", which is about riots between Muslims and Hindus.

Several of her books have been banned in India and Bangladesh. The European Parliament awarded her the Sakharov Prize for freedom of thought in 1994.

534 killed in two months: Sharp rise in serious crimes

A total of 534 people were killed and over 4,000 injured in separate incidents across the country in the last two months, stoking up public concern over a spurt in serious crimes.Of the total, 243 people were killed in July while 291 in August, said sources taking stock of the situation.

Different human rights organisations also voiced concern over a rise in such violent crimes, saying that as many as 100 people have been murdered in their bedrooms in last eight months since January.

In most cases, the law enforcers had been unable to find the clues to such gruesome murders in bedrooms, but they arrested a good number of suspects.However, Home Minister Shahara Khatun and Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Hasan Mahmud Khandaker repeatedly claimed that there were no crime rises in the country. According to human rights organisation Odhikar, at least 95 people were killed at their residences during the period between January and August this year.

Another human rights body, Ain O Salish Kendra, in its report voiced concern over a rise in murders in bedrooms across the country.Police are yet to find the motives behind the murder of journalist-couple Sagar Sarwar and Meherun Runi. They were found dead at their Rajabazar residence on February 11 this year.

In the latest incident, Dr Narayan Chandra Dutta alias Nitai, 48, was stabbed to death by raiding assailants at his residence in Mohakhali area of the capital on August 23.Businessman Haji Fazlul Haque, 72, was slaughtered by unidentified assailants in his bedroom in posh Gulshan area on July 29.

Adilur Rahman Khan, Secretary of Odhikar, said the failure of criminal justice system was a reason behind such killings, which was creating lawlessness in society."We need to develop pro-people law-enforcement agencies to fight such crimes in society. Police should be more active against such incidents in an effort to establish the rule of law in society," he added.

Former Inspector-General of Police ASM Shahjahan, also an ex-adviser of caretaker government, cited various reasons for a rise in the incidence of bloodletting in bedrooms.Terming the country a "fertile ground" for murders he said, "No trial of earlier incidents and no punishment of killers as well as interference in investigation and weakness in prosecution are main causes of growing incidents of killings in bedrooms."He criticised the ministers and law enforcers for their indifference to such killings. However, he was doubtful about rise in the number of killing incidents in bedrooms.

When contacted, IGP Hasan Mahmud Khandaker said it is true that the incidents of killings are taking place, but law enforcers are also active to track down the killers."We have found motives behind the killing of Narayan Chandra Dutta Nitai as we have arrested five murder suspects," the IGP said.

In reply to a question, the police chief claimed that law enforcers were trying their best to unearth the motive behind the killing of the journalist couple, Sagar and Runi."The law enforcers will be able to capture the killers and produce them before journalists very soon," he added.
