He said a bottle almost eight inches long and pieces of candle had been inserted “into her private parts.”

"Parents of the 5-year-old said that the police had failed to take their complaint seriously, failed to carry out an adequate search and then offered them 2,000 rupees — about $37 — if they would keep quiet about the case. Then on Friday, television news channels showed a large mustachioed police officer slapping a small female protester in the face."


“This is the first time I have seen such barbarism,” R. K. Bansal, medical superintendent of Swami Dayanand Hospital, said Friday in a televised interview. “There were injuries on her lips, cheeks, arms and anus area. Her neck had bruise marks suggesting that attempts were made to strangle her.”

very disturbing:

In December, a woman was gang-raped and tortured and her companion beaten in a case that shocked the nation and led to weeks of spontaneous protests by Indians demanding better security for women. That case led to changes in the country’s rape laws, but horrific sexual assaults continue to be reported around India with regularity. Whether women are less safe in India than in other emerging countries is uncertain, but rape and police competence have become burning political issues.

My heart aches for this poor little girl. What HELL she must've gone through!! Seems that not too many people care. People are so outraged over background checks, or giving up their large clips, but little children getting raped, beaten, strangled, etc., and most people are silent. Even though this took place in a foreign country, we should all be outraged; it happens here too!!!

Wish there was some way to stop these monsters!

... because it is gratifying to see that people seem... well, pretty darned pissed off about this. Damn right, too.

Don't be ashamed just because you're from the same country, for goodness' sake, and I say this as an American who certainly didn't want to be represented by the presidency of George Bush. I've been to India and loved loved loved it. It is a beautiful, complex, amazing country. The people there are so hospitable and friendly, despite the fact that there are a few bad apples in any country. India and the overwhelming percentage of the Indian people are absolutely, heart-warmingly wonderful.

Again, welcome to DU!

industry that has come to a screeching halt
after the first few attacks of several tourists.
Hence the reason to try and shut-up the parents
of the child by offering them $37. I wonder what
is happening there to cause this wide spread assault
of women and girls.

... that's not a "spree" unless they were all done by the same perpetrators.

It would not surprise me to learn that four children were raped in this country last month either.

17. Lifting the veil of shame

I doubt that this is some new epidemic. Rather people have become emboldened to speak out against the culture that renders them mute against charges of shame. It may be evidence of a significant change in the way Indians approach sexual crimes.
