Over 10 admitted after scuffle with police
New Delhi: Students of Jamia Millia University, who participated in an anti-CAA march towards Parliament, have been admitted to the Jamia Health Centre for injuries in their private parts.
The resident doctors at the health centre said that some of the injuries were so severe that the students had to be shifted to Al-Shifa hospital. “More than 10 woman students have been hit on their private parts. We have found blunt injuries and some have been hit in a way that we had to shift them to Al Shifa because injuries are serious in nature,” the doctors said.
“Some students have also suffered internal injuries as they have been hit on chest with lathis,” they said. A student, who was being treated at the health centre told that a woman cop removed her burqa and hit her in private parts with a lathi. “I have been hit on my private parts by cops with boots. One of the woman cops took off my Burkha and hit me on my private parts with a lathi,” she said.
Another student said that the cops were beating them below the belt so that the camera could not capture it. “They were pushing us so hard that we got stuck in stampede four or five times,” the student said. She added, “There are women who have been injured in their sensitive parts. I have been hit in the elbow and abdomen. They are hitting us with lathi below the belt so that it didn`t come in camera.”
