CISF Lady Staff Strip Search 25-week Pregnant Woman to Confirm Pregnancy
Kolkata : In a shocking incident, a pregnant woman was allegedly "strip-searched" at Lokapriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport, Guwahati after CISF lady staff wanted to verify her pregnancy.
The incident, which took place on June 24, has come to light now. The pregnant woman was returning to Delhi from Guwahati with her husband after attending the last rituals of her father in Guwahati.
According to the reports, the couple Shivam Sarmah and Doli Goswami, who live in Delhi, came to Guwahati on June 12 after Doli Goswami's father passed away on June 11.
After attending last rituals, the couple had travelled from Guwahati to Delhi by SpiceJet flight SG-169 on June 24.
What's more shocking is that instead of getting a medical professional to examine her pregnancy, a lady CISF staff manually examined the pregnant woman by pushing her abdomen. Doli Goswami presently 25 weeks pregnant.
According to the reports, Shivam Sarmah, husband of Doli Goswami, had requested the SpiceJet staff to arrange a wheelchair for his wife but the CISF staff did not hand them over their boarding passes and asked the pregnant woman to show proof of her pregnancy.
"The lady CISF staff asked my wife to accompany her to a room and forced her to undress. The CISF lady staff also pushed my wife's abdomen to check pregnancy," Shivam Sarmah took to twitter to express his anguish.
CISF has taken the matter seriously after the tweet and has initiated an enquiry into the matter.

Hubballi: Gym trainer assaulted; police say clash due to personal reasons
Hubballi: A gym trainer was allegedly assaulted by a group of people following accusations of sexual assault and ‘love jihad’, even as both families involved in the case traded serious allegations.
According to police, a group of individuals went to the residence of Sameer Mulla, a resident of Vijayanagar, and questioned him over his friendship with a woman he had met at a gym. The situation escalated into a clash, during which he was allegedly dragged away and assaulted. He sustained minor injuries and was admitted to KIMS hospital.
N. Shashikumar said that after this incident, members from Sameer’s side went to the woman’s house, leading to another clash in which one person was injured. “It was wrong for groups to go near houses. We will take necessary legal action,” he said, adding that the incident appears to have arisen from personal reasons. Police have taken some individuals into custody and are investigating the matter.
Sameer Mulla was reportedly thrashed by a group of Sangh Parivar activists and later handed over to police at the Old Hubballi Police Station after relatives of the woman and members of Hindu organisations gathered at his residence in Rajnagar.
The woman’s family alleged assault and threats from Sameer’s relatives at their Vikas Nagar residence.
Meanwhile, Sameer’s family denied the allegations and accused the woman’s relatives and others of assaulting and kidnapping him. His sister said the two had been in a relationship for three years and that the allegations were baseless.
Police said statements from both sides have been recorded, and a detailed investigation is underway. Sameer remains hospitalised, and appropriate legal action will be taken based on findings.
In a video statement shared on social media, the 20-year-old woman alleged that Sameer had given her an intoxicant, recorded videos without her consent, and sexually assaulted her. She lodged a complaint alleging rape and blackmail, which police are investigating.
In another video, Sameer denied the allegations, claiming the video was recorded with consent and that the accusations were made under pressure.
Former Hubballi-Dharwad Urban Development Authority (HDUDA) chairman Nagesh Kalburgi termed the incident a serious matter and urged police to take strict action.
Police said the case involves multiple complaints from both sides, and further investigation is underway.
