Mr. Mafikul Islam, the State President of SIO demands due investigation and capital punishment to the rapists. He added that once a molestation or rape case is proven, exemplary punishment should be given. In addition to this incident, he expressed his grave concern on increasing rate of rape, molestation and attack on minorities throughout the country. As a remedy, he states that besides providing exemplary punishment, the origin of such crimes must be identified and prevention measures should be taken.

In this context, Mohabbat Sk, the State Secretary of SIO West Bengal chapter added that Islam has shown no mercy upon the rapists. Capital punishment should be given to them. He also condemned the recent attacks on churches throughout the country.
