The victim has issued a statement herself. If we read it carefully, it becomes clear that this entire vicious cycle of gangrape is somewhere state-sponsored. It is a brutal act inspired by a political point of view," Patra told reporters during the briefing.He also alleged that the prime accused, Monojit Mishra, was a member of the ruling Trinamool Congress."Why am I saying this? Because it is related to a college union, the main accused is Manoj Mishra. Monojit Mishra himself has been the secretary of the student wing of TMC. He has been the former student of the college," he said.According to media reports, the 24-year-old woman had gone to the college to fill out a form for a test and was forced to stay back in the union room even after it was completed.Read More: ‘Protector of rapists’: BJP, TMC trade barbs over Kolkata law student gangrapeThe alumnus, Monojit Mishra (31), who is also a criminal lawyer and a contractual non-teaching staff of the college, raped her after she turned down a marriage proposal from him, while two existing students stood guard and made a video recording of the act on their mobile phones.
