FIR filed against IAF officer for alleged sexual assault and stalking

Budgam (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], September 11 (ANI): The Jammu and Kashmir Police registered an FIR at the Budgam Police Station on Wednesday after a female officer alleged rape, mental harassment and continuous stalking by an officer of the Air Force Station in Srinagar.

Section 376 (2) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) has also been invoked against the IAF officer.

Giving details of the incident in her complaint to the Police, the victim said “I wish to file an FIR against the continuous harassment, sexual assault, and mental torture that I have been subjected to over the last two years.”

Further, the victim said that the incident broke her mentally.

“Further, I revealed the incident to two lady officers. They guided me to put up a complaint. I went into a mental shock, being new to the atmosphere in forces. I was embarrassed and was broken to that extent that I was lacking the courage to report,” she said.

The victim added that the incident had put her into a mental dilemma and said “I can’t describe the mental agony of being an unmarried girl who has joined forces and was treated in such a heinous manner. The incident and nightmares put me in a dilemma of whether to discuss or be quiet, finally, I took a call and decided to fight.”

Thevictim claimed that incident has taken a toll on her social life and has led to suicidal thoughts

“The ongoing harassment has had a severe impact on my mental health. I am living in constant fear, under 24/7 scrutiny and my social life has been completely disrupted. The harassment has driven me to suicidal thoughts, and I feel utterly helpless,” she added.

“I am unable to carry on with my daily life, and my social interactions are closely monitored and discouraged by authorities. I have endured this torture for too long, and I am at my breaking point,” she said in her complaint to the Police.

Further, she requested the police to file the FIR and initiate legal action against the perpetrators of the case.

“I cannot tolerate this mental harassment any longer, as it is severely affecting my well-being. I request you to kindly register this FIR and initiate appropriate legal action against all the perpetrators involved as mentioned,” she said.

“The circumstances and situation that I have gone through even after reporting the matter have broken me to serve with such stereotypical people. The manner I have faced embarrassment in the atmosphere even after reporting the matter, the delay and discourage, shows that there is no compliance of law by authorities,” she added

“Thus I have decided to approach the police. I hope you will take immediate action to ensure justice is served and that my rights are protected,” she said.
