Damayanti Sen, famous for solving the Park Street case, has been ordered by the Calcutta High Court to probe four recent rapes in Bengal.
The Calcutta High Court has ordered a probe into four recent rape cases in Bengal under the supervision of IPS officer Damayanti Sen, who also solved the Park Street rape case in 2012. The four rape cases are from Deganga in North 24 Parganas, Malda, Bansdroni and Matia.
The High Court said these probes will be done under the supervision of Damayanti Sen.
IPS officer Damayanti Sen is the same officer who was probing the Park Street rape case in 2012. The 1996-batch IPS officer was transferred to the Bengal Police in 2012.
She was the joint commissioner (crime) of Kolkata Police at the time of the crime. She was subsequently shunted out after she told the media that an incident indeed took place on Park Street after Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee termed it “sajano ghotona" or a fabricated incident”.
