Case Update :A Legal Cry Against Harassment, Part 3
Seven Months, No FIR: How Power Dismantles Justice for Women in India
No FIR, Only Institutional Silence
A formal complaint detailed sexual coercion, financial fraud, and forced travel to a hazardous, isolated site 120 km away from the agreed 50 km location in the original job agreement. Despite health risks and unsafe conditions, no transport support was provided, costing over £500/month personally. Salaries and expenses were withheld, and the individual was subjected to psychological torture and unlawful surveillance.
These acts followed complaints against those claiming to represent the HR team of a so-called pharmaceutical organization.
Despite the gravity of the allegations and the vulnerability of the complainant—a breast cancer survivor coerced into fraudulent employment from the UK—no FIR has been registered to date despite extreme torture as mentioned in my previous posts, Case Update: A Legal Cry Against Harassment, Part 2, and A Legal Cry Against Harassment, Deception, and Abandonment Part 1
After identifying inconsistencies in legal representation, a request was made for the lawyer to resign today, followed by a formal move toward self-representation, and the process may take another 2 weeks. The case—R/SCR.A/7210/2025—remains pending in bureaucratic limbo. This extended delay is not mere negligence; it is deliberate inaction, reinforcing how institutional silence and procedural barriers are weaponized to protect the powerful and suppress those who seek redress.
2. Repeating History: Power, Bribery, and Abuse
This case echoes a deeply familiar pattern tied to the same corporate entity. In 2023–2024, a foreign national accused Dr. of rape, sexual harassment, and intimidation. That case, too, saw no legal progress, no formal investigation. Multiple accounts have since emerged alleging bribery of officials, intimidation of victims, and a systematic use of power to erase complaints before they reach court. These patterns suggest far more than individual misconduct—they point to an entrenched system of corporate impunity, where legal processes are manipulated, complaints are buried, and silence is bought.
3. The Cruel Performance of Justice for Women
India continues to parade its slogans of “women’s safety” and “beti bachao” while abandoning women to navigate a justice system rigged against them. This case reveals the deep hypocrisy beneath those slogans. A survivor has endured isolation, intimidation, health deterioration, and financial harm—all while the system shrugs. What does it say about justice in this country when a woman can document abuse, report it, and still be denied even the filing of an FIR? This is not failure; it is complicity. It is a cruel and wrongful performance of justice—one that rewards power and punishes pain. This is not just a legal matter. It is a moral indictment of every institution that claims to protect women but does nothing when the abuser is protected by influence.
This suggests - Delay as Strategy: The Cruel Exploitation of a Survivor’s Health and Life Span, Financial limitations, Voice, and Dignity.
If justice is delayed until the victim is destroyed, then it was never justice—it was a strategy. This silence must end.
If you are a journalist, researcher, advocate, or anyone who believes in women's rights and dignity, amplify this story. Share it, report on it, investigate it. Do not let it be buried like so many others. Let this be the case that exposes the cost of silence and the power of truth.
