As the survivor in the Kozhikode Government Medical College Hospital (MCH) ICU sexual assault cases completed four days of protest in front of the office of the District Police Chief (Kozhikode City) on Sunday, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has accepted on file a complaint on her behalf filed by human rights activist Noushad Thekkayil.
The survivor is staging the protest braving the scorching heat and health issues demanding copies of reports of various investigations carried out based on her complaints.
“One of the reports we seek is that of the investigation carried out by ACP K. Sudarshan against gynaecologist K.V. Preethi based on allegations that she did not furnish the full details regarding the survivor’s statement to the police as well as the investigation panel. Another was based on a complaint filed with the Director General of Police regarding the misbehaviour of the District Police Chief towards the survivor and the third was a demand to the DGP to reinvestigate the first case,” Mr. Thekkayil told The Hindu here on Sunday.
