This happened in India, right? Depending on the caste, they might hang the woman.

That's one of the most idiotic statements I've come across. You're kidding right? Or were you mixing a social problem(caste) with a religious one?

India's government and laws are secular, as far as I know.

Yeah, you're right, forgive me - the civilized people of India would never kill a rape victim or her family. I've never read about that. Don't know where I ever got the idea.

And they would never kill a young woman for not being a virgin, just like they would never bury the widow with the body of her husband. India's secular laws and courts don't always get to the scene of the crime on time.
