Meanwhile launching a scathing attack on the ruling Trinamool Congress in West Bengal, BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla on Saturday claimed a fresh rape incident in Malda district amid the row over the alleged horrific incidents in Sandeshkhali.
"Be it Sandeshkhali or Malda, no woman safe in Bengal. In another case of brutal rape and murder, a class ninth student, a Tribal, was found lifeless with face smashed, in a brick kiln in Bhabuk village of Old Malda Assembly," Poonawalla claimed in a post on X.
Notably, West Bengal Director General of Police (DGP) Rajeev Kumar who arrived in Sandeshkhali for the second consecutive day said that the chief role of the police is to establish the "rule of law" in the troubled island but warned that no one should take the law into their own hands.
"All of us need to establish rule of law here. Rule of law does not mean that I have been wronged and so I will take the law into my hands. We have to follow procedure and we are doing it everywhere," the DGP told reporters at Sandeshkhali on Friday.
