How many more Nirbhayas? Despite Supreme Court's death sentence, rapists run amok in Rohtak

Barely a week after Supreme Court sent the four men who gangraped and brutalised Nirbhaya to the gallows, Rohtak district in Haryana witnessed a gorier crime than the one that was committed on December 16, 2012 in Delhi.

 

A young girl was abducted, taken to a secluded place and allegedly gangraped by several persons. Her mutilated body was found on May 11.

 

A police investigation revealed that the girl was abducted when she was on her way to work on May 9. She lived with her parents in neighbouring Sonepat district of Haryana. When she did not come back home, her parents lodged a missing complaint with the police.

 

Police were stunned to see the state of the victim's body, which bore several injury marks. Sharp-edged objects had been inserted into the private parts of the victim. Her head had been smashed. A vehicle had been run over her.

 

The perpetrators of the crime also tried to disfigure her to hide her identity.
