Kamduni rape: Villagers to seek Narendra Modi's help for justice

Incidentally, the family of the victim - which subsequently had quit the forum - said they had faith in the state government.

"We have faith in our chief minister and her government which has been extending all help. Law will take its own course and the guilty will be punished," said the victim's brother.

Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) leader Malini Bhattacharya, BJP's Shamik Bhattacharya and Bharati Mutsuddi, a former member of the state Women's Commission, visited Kamduni and expressed anguish over the slow pace of the trial.
