EVEN AS WEST Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee Sunday said she was "shocked" by the alleged gangrape of a student of a private medical college in Paschim Bardhaman and assured that no accused would be spared, she raised questions over women hostellers "venturing out so late at night".

- SWEETY KUMARI

Before heading to north Bengal, Banerjee, when asked to comment on the rape incident, said:“It is a shocking incident. The girl was studying in a private medical college. Whose responsibility is it? How did she (the medical student) come out (of the hostel) at 12.30 am? As far as I know, it happened in the jungle. I don't know what happened at 12.30 am."

"Private medical institutions should be careful. They must take care of their students. Especially, when it is girl students, they should not be allowed to go out at night."
