Manojit Mishra “Mango Da”, a 31‑year‑old former student leader of the Trinamool Congress Chhatra Parishad (TMCP) at Kolkata’s South Calcutta Law College, stands accused of orchestrating the brutal gang‑rape of a first‑year law student on June 25 inside the campus guard room. The victim alleges he proposed marriage, videotaped the assault, and struck her with a hockey stick, while two student accomplices—Zaib Ahmed (19) and Pramit Mukherjee (20) watched. Mishra had pervasive influence on campus, even after graduation, and held a contractual staff position following prior suspensions. A fourth suspect, the security guard, was also arrested. The case has sparked widespread outrage and intensified scrutiny of Mishra’s political ties. (PC: News18)
