Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India] August 28 (ANI): Samajwadi Party MP Awadesh Prasad on Wednesday criticised Chief Minister Adityanath Yogi’s government, saying that the law and order has “failed”, over the death of two girls found hanging from a tree in Uttar Pradesh’s Farrukhabad.
Speaking with ANI, Awadesh Prasad said, “This incident is saddening and painful. It is sad that since the BJP has come to power under Yogi Adityanath, law and order have completely failed.”
“Everyday incident like this keeps happening in UP. The law and order is out of their (BJP) control.” Awadesh Prasad said.
Prasad further demanded a speedy investigation of the case.
“It should be seriously investigated and financial help to be provided to the victim’s family,” he said.
Awadesh Prasad’s harsh criticism came after two girls were found hanging from a tree in Bhagautipur village of Farrukhabad district on Monday.
SP Alok Priyadarshi of Farrukabad police station informed that the two girls, one identified as an 18-year-old and another as a 15-year-old, were found hanging from a tree.
Meanwhile, Chief Medical Officer Farrukhabad Avanindra Kumar informed that no evidence of sexual or physical assault was found in the post-mortem.
“Postmortem of both the girls has been done. There is no evidence of sexual or physical assault.” CMO Avanindra Kumar said.
According to the police, it is suspected that the girls climbed the tree together and tied the dupatta to the branch to hang themselves. “Prima facie, it seemed that the girls had done it by themselves,” said SP Priyadarshi.
The father of one of the deceased girls, spoke to ANI about the incident. “We had returned from the temple at night, and then after some time, both the girls told me that they were going to the Temple for the program. I work at the farm, so I was tired and I slept that time. When the program finished at 12, I couldn’t find the girls, I asked everyone I could and searched all over for them but couldn’t find them,” said Pappu.
He further explained that he found out about the bodies when someone had gone to the farm in the morning, which is when the girls were reportedly found. (ANI)
