Now that CBI has charged the 4 Hathras accused for gang rape and murder, let us look at how the ‘honor killing, no rape’ narrative was echoed by the entire BJP ecosystem. Thread 1/n👇

Republic: “now that it appears there was no rape, leave alone gang rape...some people are suggesting it could be case of honor killing. Needs to be investigated.” 2/n
BJP Mahila Morcha’s national social media in charge. Wherever there is misleading narrative being built, you are sure to find her there. 3/n.
BJP loyalists started getting ‘hints’. One with ‘facts’ in the handle name even declared “Hathras- No Rape” 4/n
BJP supporters dutifully circulated a random video as ‘new facts coming out’. 5/n
BJP social media warriors took the lead. “Is media still running the rape angle? More work required by us”. What is more work? See the next tweet. 6/n
BJP copy paste trolls 7/n
“Journalist” 8/n
The honor killing angle was further sensationalized by a misleading headline stating that the woman was murdered by her mother and brother (fine print added that it is the accused who is saying this) 9/n
All this shameless effort to whitewash was made even after the victim in her dying statement had reportedly stated that she was gangraped and had named four youths of the village. 10/10

We - myself from AIPWA, @kawalpreetdu from @AISA_tweets and advocate Sneha from @HRLNIndia are in Kanth, #Moradabad to meet the Muskan and Rashid, the couple who are victims of illegal arrest, forced abortion by @UPPolice under the hateful ordinance passed by @myogiadityanath


We found that 1) Muskan is very weak after her miscarriage, and the Moradabad District Hospital where she was admitted has not given her the treatment papers, nor any course of antibiotics and painkillers to prevent post miscarriage infections that can affect fertility in future

2) The first dose of antibiotics & painkillers Muskan received is today - after we got her to speak on phone to a senior gynaecologist in Delhi, who explained that antibiotics are always prescribed following a miscarriage, to prevent infections.

3) Muskan alleges that the hospital administered abortifacient injections after which she suffered a miscarriage. What is indisputable is that the hospital deliberately failed in its duty to a patient, a) by not telling Muskan re the miscarriage b) by not prescribing antibiotics

and c) by withholding her treatment papers which every patient is supposed to receive
Moreover, how did the head of the UP State Commission for Protection of Child Rights Dr Vishesh Gupta, declare that pregnancy was intact? On whose orders did Dr Vishesh Gutpa lie?
