( Its in the sun , I am tempted to say I don't believe a word of it !)
What sort of sick bstrd can do that to a woman , best thing I think is to beat the .... Out of them once a week for 25 years , that might stop that particular individual from doing it again ,,,,,,,,, sick men
I have been to india a number of times,spent long enough time there to realise rape is common particularly anongst lower-caste women who have no recourse whatsoever should it happen to them,police are as bent as 9-rupee notes to be honest,the girl was penetrated repeatedly with a metal pole,her intestines or part of them were pulled out,nothing else to add,its a f*cked up world we live in and thats the truth
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
the sun, no its been reported in many places..

Alam stormed into the home and dragged Bibi onto the street in broad daylight.
Passers-by looked on in horror as he cut off Bibi's head while saying "she had sinned and had to be punished".
Alam left his sister's body in a pool of blood on the road, and calmly walked to the police station, her head in hand, to surrender himself. The siblings' family expressed support for Alam, saying they were proud he upheld their honour.

Most "Honour" killings never get reported,they are conducted in tribal lands like NWFP and remote villages,likewise things like sati and rapes.

Truly horrific.
Hopefully the outcry over this heinous crime may at least lead to Indian society climbing one more rung up the ladder towards civilisation and the 21st century.
I think they should apply death penalty for some cases like this. We did have that law before in the Philippines and the last one was Echegaray who raped his own daughter. If these people could easily do evil job and so is the Law.
I'm a cruel and heartless bitch but I’m damn good at it!
The gang rape on a bus that sickened India
After spending her evening watching "Life of Pi" in a New Delhi mall, the 23-year-old student and her male companion were looking for a quick lift home when a bus with tainted windows pulled over.
The pair were then subjected to a catalogue of violence and sexual depravity which has evoked comparisons with Anthony Burgess's novel "A Clockwork Orange" and brought simmering anger over the plight of women to the boil across India.
The Indian news channel NDTV greeted news of her death in the early hours of Saturday in a Singapore hospital with the banner headline "RIP: India's Daughter", in a reflection of how her plight had moved the nation.
Ever since she was attacked on the night of December 16, the country's leaders have lined up to offer their prayers and condemn the attack as well as paying for her treatment in Singapore.
Although the identity of the young woman has not yet been released, reports have said she was a medical student who hailed from a rural area of Uttar Pradesh, India's largest state which borders the capital New Delhi.
Her parents, who had travelled to Singapore after she was flown out by air ambulance on Wednesday night, are said to have sold their small piece of land in order to fund their daughter's education, often limiting their own meals to little more than rotis with namak (bread with salt), according to NDTV.
"These are simple, rustic people, who have never dreamt of boarding an aircraft, much less travel to a foreign country in an air ambulance," a source at the hospital told Singapore's Straits Times after meeting her relatives.
Before flying out to Singapore, the woman had managed to give an interview to police at Delhi's Safdarjung Hospital about the events on the night of her attack.
Police and prosecutors have outlined how six men picked the pair up outside the mall in a school bus which they had taken for a joyride after drinking heavily.
Even before they stopped outside the mall, they had allegedly picked up another passenger and then forced him to hand over the contents of his wallet.
After getting into an argument with the woman's male companion, the group are then alleged to have lashed out at the pair before taking turns to rape the woman in the back of the bus while driving around Delhi for some 45 minutes.
They also sexually assaulted the woman with a rusting metal bar, leaving her with severe intestinal injuries, before hurling her out of the vehicle.
The bus would have had to cross numerous police checkpoints at that time of night but at no stage was the vehicle pulled over by officers.
After news of the attack emerged, small-scale protests quickly swelled and were then repeated across the country -- fuelled in part by anger at the police's use of teargas and water cannon.
The Indian government has set up a commission of inquiry to investigate what mistakes were made on the night of the attack and in its aftermath.
But in an address to chief ministers from the country's states who gathered in New Delhi on Thursday, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh acknowledged that it was far from an isolated event.
"We must reflect on this problem, which occurs in all states and regions. It requires greater attention by the central government and states," he said.
Gang-rapes happen on such a regular basis that they are rarely reported in the Indian press although the attack in Delhi has led papers to shine a rare spotlight on such attacks.
On Thursday night, it emerged that a 17-year-old girl had committed suicide after police allegedly tried to persuade her to drop a complaint of gang-rape and instead either accept a cash settlement or even marry one of her attackers.
After quoting from the infamous gang-rape scene in Burgess's novel, a columnist for The Hindu wrote this week that "few Indians will need a dictionary of the teenage slang Burgess invented to grasp the horror of this passage".
"For progress to be made, we must begin by acknowledging this one fact: the problem isn't the police, the courts or the government. The problem is us," wrote Praveen Swami
