'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.
It takes a village ...
Damn. I thought UP meant northern Michigan.
I'll bet she was plenty cold too, with the wind coming off Lake Superior and all.
L
LOL!
Gotta love that diversity.
I say we grant amnesty to similarly oppressed women from around the globe. Save the nymphos!
In that order?
In other news, a separate parade and award ceremony was held for certain innumerable men, all described as "studs."
Wonder if she ever worked at "Weasels"?
Will there EVER be a day when civilization catches up with these people? The cure for ignorance is education.
How can we condemn a people who is reared in ignorance and superstition unless we are willing to sacrifice something of ourselves?
Man, it sure sounds like it. Is this India? Oh....do we have any before and after pictures? I've never seen a real nymphomaniac,...although i've dreamed about meeting one....

Wow. I've never met a "stud," though a lot of men have SAID they were. Seems their big shiny belt buckles got in the way. Somehow, they just never seemed to measure up as MEN.

*Heh-heh* On the opposite end of the scale, so have I! ;o]
Later that afternoon, Shastriji consulted the mustard oil while fielding a tech support call, to determine that the hard-drive was indeed bad in the Gateway laptop belonging to a Mrs. Clausen from Bucksnort Junction, Tennessee.
Well Monkey Face,
What do you recommend we sacrifice?
Well, he's a tantrik, dude, so he would know....
True, the term is often used among dudes bragging about their sexual exploits. Thus, my facetious comment comparing how promiscuous women are sometimes viewed, compared to the guys these same chicks bed.
There are real studs, though. Charles Bronson, John Wayne, Gary Cooper, to name a few.
