Abuse continued in Army after Beck's death, friend says [Video]

Abuse continued in Army after Beck's death, friend says

A friend of Jaysley Beck has said sexual abuse in the Army is still going on years after the former Royal Artillery gunner's death. The body of the 19-year-old was found in a locker room at Wiltshire's Larkhill Camp in 2021. She had been subjected to relentless harassment from her line manager, Bombardier Ryan Mason, an inquest was told. Beck had also filed a complaint against Battery Sergeant Major Michael Webber who "pinned her down" and tried to kiss her at a work social. Former soldier Tamzin Hort compared being a woman in the Army to being "a piece of meat in a tank of sharks" and that "people get sexually assaulted left, right and centre, but nothing's done about it".

Major Digvijay Singh Rawat Responds to Bimol Akoijam, Highlights Army's Role in Manipur Conflict

Highlighting a controversial incident, Rawat shares a video of Meitei Arambai militants traveling in a Meitei police vehicle and bypassing Army checkposts.
