AIDWA CEC welcomes the fact that truth has been established in the brutal Kamduni gangrape and murder of a college girl student in West Bengal two and a half years ago. At the lower court the rape and murder have been proved. AIDWA is happy that justice is ensured in spite of the denial by ruling TMC and Chief Minister who only gave assurances of justice. Six acquitted have been given due punishment but still two of the alleged are being set free. The villagers claim that the two set free owe allegiance to ruling TMC. AIDWA has been by the side of the villagers whose struggle for justice was led by the two friends of the victim Tumpa Kayal and Mausumi Kayal along with their school teacher Pradip babu who formed Kamduni Pratibadi Mancha in support of the victim's family. Chief Minister herself threatened them personally and the movement but AIDWA was with the struggle for justice.
The judgement was declared on 30th January, while the crime was proved in the court on 28th January. AIDWA activists along with the villagers of Kamduni village assembled in the court and welcomed that the crime was proved. This was a victory of women's movement and democratic movement. On 29th January the justice was welcomed publicly in a mammoth rally held in Kolkata by Left women's organisation. AIDWA in West Bengal is still fighting to free the state from all anarchism and unholy nexus of police, antisocial and TMC and for restoration of democracy. Kamduni trials came as a partial victory to the struggle.
