A mentally ill woman in India raped and assaulted with an iron bar
News24xx.com - Indian police said on Wednesday, February 21, 2018 that they had arrested two men over the gang rape case against a mentally ill woman in West Bengal state. As a result of the rape, the poor woman needed surgery after a violent attack.
The 27-year-old woman is now in critical condition after being abducted late Saturday from a carnival and taken to the field where she was raped and her genitals were inserted a bar of iron.
She was found naked and full of blood the next day and she was immediately rushed to a hospital where she underwent emergency surgery.
"Two men aged 50 and 54 were arrested on Wednesday," Anju Sharma, a West Bengal police general director, told AFP.
A local court ordered that they to be held in police custody.
The brutality of crime has generated shock even in a country where sexual violence is still high.
Mamata Banerjee, head of West Bengal's minister, visited the woman at the hospital and said her medical bills would be paid by the government.
The attack is almost similar to the case of fatal rape experienced by Delhi students who died after being attacked with a metal rod in 2012.
The terrible nature of the crime attracts global attention and releases public anger in India about the widespread sexual violence against women. It led to an overhaul of India's rape laws but high numbers of assaults persist.
Nearly 40,000 rape cases are reported annually, according to the latest official data.
Campaigners say that the actual number is much higher, with victims worrying about how their complaints will be addressed or the social stigma associated with sex crimes.
