On 7 June, 2013, a 20-year-old college student was abducted, gang-raped and murdered in Kamduni, near Barasat, about 20 km from Kolkata. The victim, a second year BA student of Derozio College, was walking home along the Kamduni BDO Office Road in the afternoon, when she was abducted and taken inside a factory where she was gang raped by at least nine men. After raping her, the perpetrators tore apart her legs up to the navel, slit her throat and dumped her body into a nearby field. Eight of the nine accused have been arrested. The victim's family and the villagers have steadfastly demanded justice for the victim and refused any financial help from the government.
On 31st January 2016, a Kolkata court had sentenced three convicts to death and three others to life imprisonment for the Kamduni gang-rape and murder. The woman was gang-raped and killed when she was returning home in Kamduni, about 30 km from Kolkata, after appearing for an examination at her college on June 7, 2013.
