Kolkata Gang Rape: Law Student Says Monojit Mishra Harassed Women for Years
A student shares chilling details of Monojit Mishra’s campus terror—photo morphing, threats, vandalism—shielded by political influence. FIRs were ignored until the brutal gang-rape arrest unmasked years of unchecked misconduct at South Calcutta Law College.

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], July 01: A law student from South Calcutta Law College has spoken out about Monojit Mishra’s reign of fear. Students skipped classes to avoid him, she said. He would click and morph photos of women, sharing them over WhatsApp groups. This created a tense environment, where students stayed silent, afraid of his influence and power.
Alleged Political Protection
The student also claimed multiple FIRs had been filed against Mishra but were ignored due to his political links. She said nobody dared act against him because he was “politically safeguarded.” These warnings point to a culture of impunity on campus that thrived till the recent gang-rape arrest.
Past Cases of Misconduct
Reportedly, Mishra had harassed female students in 2019, tearing off clothes. In 2024, he allegedly assaulted a security guard and vandalised property. Theft charges also surfaced. These incidents are now reinforcing the belief that he was untouchable due to his status and protection.
Premeditated Attack, Say Police
Police said Mishra and two others—Pramit Mukherjee and Zaid Ahmed—planned the brutal assault over days. A Special Investigation Team found a pattern: they had sexually harassed women on campus before and blackmailed them with recordings. Authorities are now hunting for these videos from their devices and residences.
Parents And Priesthood
Mishra’s parents, with his father a priest at Kalighat temple, are said to have disowned him. This reflects the seriousness of allegations and pressure. The family's distancing indicates the social cost of mishandled campus environments and abuse hidden under political shields.
