The National Human Rights Commission has asked the Bihar government to pay an interim relief of Rs.5 lakh to a woman, who was raped by a Home Guard at a police outpost in Bagah village of Champaran West.

The Chief Secretary should send to the NHRC the proof of payment within four weeks and the district authorities should inform it whether the victim belonged to SC/ST community. The incident occurred on March 4, 2011.

The Commission took cognisance of the case on a complaint by one Prabir Kumar Das on July 11. In response to the Commission's proceedings and notices, Bihar had informed that the Home Guard was arrested and court proceedings were initiated against him. The process for termination of his services was also in progress.

The Assistant Sub-Inspector of the police outpost was suspended and departmental proceedings initiated against him. This is said to be the first time in recent times that the Commission had ordered an interim relief of as high as Rs.5 lakh to a rape victim.
