harassment

AnonymousLLB 23 Jul 2014, 09:06

Hi,

My case can sound little odd. I am the elder daughter of my family and I have a sister. she is engaged with her private tutor. She just passed 12 th standard. She spends the whole day with her boyfriend(12 years older)and if my parent say something she tries to make a mess at home. She did not seek any help with admission in college from her parent. though she had a very good score the person took her and forced her to take admission in an average women college. She comes home every day to have food and sleep. The person told that he is learning MBBS but later we found that is wrong. He is constantly eating my sister’s brain and I am sad to say that she is not mature enough.

Meanwhile when my parents was investigating to get his sister’s and her families information from local people, he called my father and threaten him, same as my sister did. My parents are not going to the police as they dont know how to form it and if police takes steps then later my sister can be harmed. I am studying in US and my family is in Kolkata. So, I am also unable to help them. Any kind of advice is welcome.

Thank you.

Nilanjana

Dear,

If you sister is less than 18 years of age then even her going consentualy with the men would amount to kidnapping, but if she is above 18 then she is her own boss according to law of the land.

or your parents can still make a formal complaint to the police, kind of anonymous complaint mentioning the current state of affairs and seeking a protection of your sister to the ACP of the concerned area, in that way they will also be saved from your sister’s torture.
