The Superintendent of Police, Koraput, and the DIG (south-western range) are among the officials against whom the case was filed in the court of the district and session cum-special judge, Jeypore.<\/p>\n
Bhagaban Chatti complained that the officials did not inquire into his sister’s case properly and accused them of gross negligence in discharging duties.<\/p>\n
He sought an inquiry against the 11 officials, who also include the assistant director and the assistant chemical examiner of the State Forensic Science Laboratory (Biological Division) in Bhubaneswar.<\/p>\n
The 14-year-old girl was allegedly raped by four men while she was returning home from a market in Koraput on October 10 last year.<\/p>\n
The police had claimed that she was not raped.<\/p>\n
The girl had on January 22 committed suicide by hanging herself allegedly for not getting justice.<\/p>\n
The Odisha CID has sent the exhibits of the Koraput rape case to the Central Forensic Science Laboratory, Kolkata, for re-examination.<\/p>\n
On December 29, the girl had alleged that senior police officers had tried to influence her and even offered money to withdraw the case.<\/p>\n
