Odisha Horror: Tribal Woman Assaulted In Bolangir, Human Faeces Forced Into Her Mouth Over Crop Dispute

In a shocking incident, a 20-year-old tribal woman was reportedly assaulted and human faeces were forced into her mouth in Jurabandha village, located in Odisha’s Bolangir district. The incident occurred on November 16, within the jurisdiction of the Bangamunda police station, according to police officials.

The accused involved in the incident, a non-tribal man, was operating a tractor on the woman’s agricultural land, causing damage to crops, to which she protested. According to the FIR, the accused then assaulted her and forced human faeces into her mouth. The accused also assaulted her aunt when she came to rescue her. 

During a press conference in Bhubaneswar, BJD MP Niranjan Bisi accused the police of failing to take action against the accused in the Bangamunda case, which has caused significant unrest among the tribal community. He warned that if the law and order situation in the region worsens, the state government would be held accountable.
