The Bibighar Gardens

Summary Daphne and Hari develop a deep affection for each other. When they meet in the Bibighar gardens they are attacked and Daphne is raped. Ronald Merrick takes advantage of the situation and arrests Hari and several of his friends for the rape. He clearly oversteps the mark and beats and tortures the men to get a confession. Daphne knows that the men who attacked her were peasants or laborers. When the police claim to have found her damaged bicycle, which she had left in the Bibighar near Hari's house, she knows that Merrick has planted evidence in order to implicate Hari. Daphne soon learns that she is pregnant and that Hari has been jailed for illegal political activity, but not for the assault.
