Five charity workers gang-raped in India

NEW DELHI: Five women working for a charity in remote eastern India were abducted and gang-raped at gunpoint, police said Friday, in the latest horrific sex assault in the country. The women said in their complaint they were performing a play to raise awareness about human trafficking in the largely tribal Khunti district of Jharkhand state on Tuesday when they were abducted.

The assailants shot videos of the attack and threatened the women if they went to the police. The women worked for the non-governmental organisation Asha Kiran, which is supported by a local Christian missionary group, police officer Rajesh Prasad said. “We have been questioning several people,” Prasad told AFP.

Police have also rounded up some supporters of Pathalgadi, an anti-establishment self-rule movement popular in several tribal villages. Pathalgadi supporters resent outsiders and do not allow them to enter or settle in their area. Khunti is also a hotbed of Maoists, armed guerrillas who have been waging a decades-long insurgency mainly for land rights.

The area is a hot bed of various rebel groups even by Indian standards. Not the safest place to be as a charity worker.

India is one of several crapholes--forgive me, toilets--I hope to never have to visit.

This is standard operating procedure in India. Chrfistians, Sikhs, Dalits, and others have been subjected to rape, murder, torture, and other such atrocities on a routine basis.

Been there twice. And I’d love to go again. But yes, it’s a shithole.

...and I suppose the authorities think
it’s a great idea to have these “workers” go into these areas without
armed guards....just another shthole

High up on every SJW’s vacation list. Lucky for those assclowns theses weren’t Gonds who still practice human sacrifice.

Sounds like a case for the UN Human Rights Tribunal.

See India: mud, feces, dead bodies in rivers, diseases, flies, filth piled up, animal abuse, more mud and feces, gang rapes.

No thanks, I'd rather stay home.

I saw some truly disturbing pictures taken in India once. They were in a montage in some Chinese rag website. The ChiComs did not even have to doctor them.

It’s a fascinating place. And the people have always been incredibly friendly and helpful. If you’re a westerner, and in staying nice accommodations, then you’ll be extremely comfortable
