On 04.08.2004 Arunashri wrote a letter to Managing
Trustee informing him about the molestation and their failure to protect her.
She then sent a complaint on 05.08.2004 to the Pondicherry Police through RPAD.
This complaint has been totally denied by the police but we have A/D Card to
prove that the police did receive this complaint but failed to act. All of us
were being continually harassed and even our various possessions like cycle, footwear and
door locks were being broken, damaged and tampered with on a day-to-day basis.
We were totally traumatized yet the SP North of Pondicherry one Firoz Zia
Hussain, failed to act in spite of repeated oral complaints and visits to the
police station requesting for relief.
It is an open secret that the trustees pay hafta
to the Pondicherry Police and many of them regularly visit the Trust Office for
personal gains.
On 16.09.2004 Arunashri’s room had been tied with
wire and rope. She went with Jayashree to the police station and did not budge
till they had taken down her complaint and registered an FIR. They were made to
wait in the police station till 9.00 p.m. by SHO Varadarajan. Her complaint on
which FIR No.213/2004 was registered on 17.09.2004 had been dictated by the police to
suit their convenience and unfortunately it did not contain all the grievances
of Arunashri.
