It’s a revolting tale of
incest where a woman had been repeatedly raped for nearly about a decade by her
sibling. It’s a ten-year-long ordeal – a harrowing saga of dread, deception,
defiance and a pathogenic disrespect for women’s modesty. Alas! What a beastly
tale of raw incest and sexual promiscuity!

– a sleazy shantytown perched in the heart of old Mumbai snuggling Darukhana
locality in Mazagaon sobs and snivels at the extreme cruelty that a sibling has
committed – raped her own sister. Aslam Wahid (name changed) is a slumlord and
a ‘well-connected’ don who boasts of having cordial relation with the infamous bhais of
Dubai . ‘This monster has allegedly raped Mumtaz forcibly at gunpoint,’ said an
acquaintance on condition of anonymity.
The misfortune befalls
Mumtaz after the demise of her hubby. Reeling under awful poverty this poor
woman went to Dubai as housemaid, where she worked hard for almost a decade.
Her toil bore fruit and after her return to her homeland she purchased a modest
flat of two-bedroom-kitchen in a relatively upmarket locality of Mumbra-Kausa.
The 30 something damsel had not even in her wildest dream thought that a man,
who was supposed to protect her modesty from prying eyes and lascivious
pretensions of urban predators, her brother, would rape her. In a cloistered
enclosure of their ancestral house – a small claustrophobic cubicle there were
no one to hear her moans and wails. Repeatedly the beast outraged her modesty
and the fear of ‘dire repercussion’, warned by Wahid had kept her lips sealed
to this very day – thereby keeping the justice at bay. ‘On a plethora of
occasions we tried to contact her but either she altogether brushed us off as
she was scared of some unforeseen eventuality,’ a friend of his father
lamented.
