In a tragic turn of events the sensational October 10 kunduli gang rape victim, dalit minor girl, committed suicide at her house frustrated over the police inaction and investigation into the case. The victim girl was rescued in a critical condition from her house in Musaguda village and taken to the Kunduli Community Health Centre where the doctors declared her as received dead.

Sunabeda SDPO Narahari Nayak confirmed that the Kunduli gang rape victim had committed suicide.

The minor dalit girl had alleged that she was gang raped by four armed jawans .

She had even told the newsmen that she was under pressure from the police to withdraw the case and even offered money by a senior police officer to change her statement.

The incident had snowballed into a major political issue in Odisha forcing the state government to declare it as a Red Flag case, order for a Crime Branch Inquiry and later a judicial inquiry by a sitting District Judge.
