சாதி மறுப்பு திருமணம் செய்பவர்களின் பாதுகாப்பு கருதி SC/ST வன்கொடுமை தடுப்பு சட்டத்தில் திருத்தும் தேவை ! சாதி மறுப்பு திருமணம் செய்பவர்களில் ஆனோ
அல்லது பெண்ணோ SC/ST ஆக இருந்தால் அவர்களுக்கு SC/ST வன்கொடுமை தடுப்பு சட்டத்தின் முலம் பாது காப்பு தரப்பட வேண்டும் .
A man was arrested for slitting the throat of his daughter at the Red Hills police station on Monday. He was called to the police station after his daughter, who eloped with a Dalit, requested protection as her family was against the marriage.
S Ezhumalai arrived at the police station with a knife hidden in his trousers and caught everyone by surprise by attacking Kalaivani, his daughter.
Kalaivani, who married P Joshua a week ago, is battling for life at a private hospital. A magistrate court sent Ezhumalai to 15-day custody in the Ponneri sub jail.
Following a complaint by Joshua and Kalaivani that they feared for their lives as her family was against their marriage, Red Hills police inspector K Kumaran called Ezhumalai for talks. “Ezhumalai, a real estate businessman, came to the station dressed in a pair of trousers and shirt. As soon as he entered, he walked towards Kalaivani, pulled out a knife from his pocket and slit her throat,” Kumaran said.
Kalaivani, an undergraduate student, fled home on January 21 to get married to Joshua in a city church. She had met Joshua, an employee of a private firm in Ambattur, some 18 months ago through a common friend. Fearing opposition, she did not disclose her relationship to her family and registered her marriage at the sub-registrar’s office in Egmore last week.
‘Couple went to seek police protection’
Chennai: On Monday, the couple went to the Red Hills police station to seek protection. “Ezhumalai filed a complaint that Kalaivani was missing. We feared that they would harm us,” said a weeping Joshua outside the hospital ward. “We’re shocked that this happened in a city police station,” said Joshua’s uncle. The Union government is planning an amendment to the Indian Evidence Act (in the wake of a rash of ‘honour’ killings in north India, instigated by Khap panchayats), which seeks to put the onus on the caste councils to prove their innocence and make them equally culpable.
