TMCP leader Monojit Mishra, 31, was arrested on June 28 for allegedly raping a first-year student inside South Calcutta Law College. A medical report confirmed signs of forced penetration and injuries. Mishra’s arrest has exposed a decade-long history of violence, including assault, molestation, and threats, with FIRs filed across Kolkata. Despite warnings, college authorities failed to act. A Special Investigation Team has been formed as political pressure mounts. The BJP accused police of shielding Mishra due to political ties, which the Trinamool Congress denies. Students say Mishra ruled the campus through fear, with repeated complaints ignored for years. (PC: India Today)
