Mamata claim raises political heat Former West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s claim of being prevented from leaving her residence has added fresh political tension to the Baruipur minor death case. The incident, involving the death of a 12-year-old girl, has already sparked public anger, protests and demands for fast justice. The Trinamool Congress alleged that police were posted outside Banerjee’s home and barricades were placed after officials came to know about her plan to visit the victim’s family in Baruipur. The party said she wanted to meet the family, offer support and call for strict action against those involved. Officials have not yet given a detailed public response to the allegation. SIT probe remains under pressure The case is linked to the alleged rape and murder of a minor girl in the Surjyapur area of Baruipur, South 24 Parganas. Police said the girl had gone out to buy a birthday gift but did not return home. Her family later alleged that she was taken away forcibly and claimed their early appeals for help were not handled with urgency. Her body was later found near Surjyapur Haat, triggering strong protests in the area. Residents blocked roads, burned tyres and damaged police vehicles as anger grew over the handling of the case. Security was increased to control the situation and avoid further violence. Police have formed a Special Investigation Team to investigate the case. Several people have been arrested, while another local political worker has reportedly been questioned. Senior officers have said the probe will continue and all accused persons will face legal action. For the TMC, the alleged house arrest claim has turned the Baruipur case into a wider political issue involving law and order, police conduct and democratic rights. For the victim’s family, the main demand remains clear: a fair investigation, quick justice and punishment for everyone responsible. The next few days will be crucial. A transparent and fast SIT probe may help calm public anger, but any delay or sign of political pressure could deepen the controversy. The Baruipur case now stands as a serious test for policing, public trust and justice in West Bengal.
