A 20-year-old college student was gangraped and set on fire in Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav's home district Etawah on Thursday.
The victim, who was admitted to hospital with 80 per cent burns, was stated to be critical on Friday.
Shockingly, the police not only initially refused to register a case but also appeared to have abdicated their responsibility to maintain law and order. The police brass expressed helplessness in curbing the rising incidents of rape in the state.
According to police files, this was the 126th incident of rape in the state in the last one week. In 20 of these cases, the victims were killed.
The victim is a resident of Desarmau village under Ekdil police station. According to the complaint lodged by her father, she had gone for morning ablution when a Farman Ahmed, a youth of the village who wanted to marry her, pulled her inside his house.
He and his three friends - Mohammad Mehmood, Mohammad Shakeel and Mohammad Sabara - took turns to rape her and later then threatened her with dire consequences if she told her family.
When she told them that she would go to the police, the rapists sprinkled kerosene on her and set on fire. Full story...
