'Nymphomaniac' paraded naked in UP

A woman, branded nymphomaniac by a local tantrik, was stripped naked, tarred, her head shaved and paraded naked on a donkey in Chandpur under Sarai Aqueel police station of Uttar Pradesh's Kaushambhi district.
Known as Shastriji, the tantrik reportedly told his congregation that 17-year-old Usha had an insatiable sexual appetite and had slept with innumerable men. He said the teenager would continue to bed other men unless she was burnt alive on the stake for her infractions.
To make matters worse, Shastriji also held Usha responsible for the murder of a 5-year-old whose body was discovered in a pond some days ago. Claiming that he had seen the gruesome killing reenacted in a tumbler of mustard oil, the tantrik convinced everyone of Usha's guilt. She was subsequently denounced as a witch.
While many of the locals had made up their minds to consign Usha to the flames, what saved her was dissension from a section of the crowd. As a compromise, it was decided to publicly humiliate the girl by taking out a procession in which she would be carried naked. Usha's tormentors even shelled out money from their own pockets to hire a donkey and go through with their cruel plan.
Five people have so far been arrested in this connection. The charges against them include forcing a girl to strip, obscenity at a public place and assaulting her with canes. Vijay, Amarnath, Rajendra and Shyam Sunder are among those currently in police custody.
The local populace however hasn't taken kindly to the police action. Usha, they still believe, is a witch whom they had every right to attack. Although police say the child most likely drowned since the post-mortem report shows no external injury marks, no one seems willing to accept that explanation.
Senior police officials including the Sub-Divisional Magistrate are camping in the area to diffuse the situation following angry protests against the five arrests.
Oh yeah, parade the nymphomaniac naked through town. That'll help morality!!!
There are real studs, though. Charles Bronson, John Wayne, Gary Cooper, to name a few.
Michael Jackson?
Yah-hey, I taut it waz just yoopers, too.
"...There are real studs, though. Charles Bronson, John Wayne, Gary Cooper, to name a few."
Never having had the pleasure of their company, I'm still skeptical. Although I admit they look "hunky" I'll reserve any comments ~~ they are all dead.
Usha can come live with me
Not a bad looking guy. Good radio voice. Wouldn't call him a stud, though.
"Well Monkey Face,
What do you recommend we sacrifice?"
Gee, MAJOR. I've always been willing to sacrifice myself to ensure that those things that I believe in are protected. I have sacrificed a husband and several grandfathers for the idea of freedom.
My two children have both served this country, so I am not afraid of challenges. If you have a beef about "sacrifice" speak up. I'll go one-on-one with you, MAJOR.
Good one Larry. Did he have surgery again?
And you will protect her from tantriks, eh? Let me guess, you saw this scenario in your tumbler of mustard oil.... ;-)
Yes, he had another caucasio-plasty. (Did you see South Park the other day?)
I couldn't think of any living studs, though I'm sure there are some of note. It's not like a guy sits around thinking about who is a stud (I can name a few babes, though).
yup...them old tantriks might have a hard tyme gettin around
my old shootin iron collectshun ;^)
thars better uses for mustard oil too
Dude, that is just BEGGING for some one to post a picture of Helen Thomas...
Larry, I'm in Korea. We don't get Southpark here.

Don't you dare, I just ate dinner.
She was subsequently denounced as a witch...
My thoughts (or as they say in Hindustan, "toughts") exactly. She probably gave him an STD, or abandoned him for another Tantric right before a major orgy, er...religious ceremony.
There are people in this country who are sacrificing a lot to make sure that girls and women like Usha aren't abused in that way here. It's more backward in this country than you'd think, though, when it comes to sexual issues/sexual agency of women and girls, although we don't generally have entire communities parading naked people through the streets....
