Swimmer Bula Chowdhury’s Hooghly home broken into for second time in 5 months: ‘I am in trauma. There’s a risk to my life’

“The police had posted two civic volunteers after the theft, but it’s all the same. There is no law and order. There is nothing left of my house. They have broken taps and basins. I have not repaired anything. I am completely in trauma. If I stay here, there is also a risk to my own life.”

“I used to think about how many medals I would win, but now I think I am going to set a record in the number of times thieves enter and ransack my house,” she added.

Chowdhury said she filed a complaint at the Uttarpara police station and that an investigation into how intruders had broken into the house despite the security was underway.

“The inspector in charge visited my home and collected some evidence,” she said.
The police have not issued any official statement about the incident, though sources said that an investigation was underway.
