Suicide by gang-raped teen highlights how police added to trauma
A 17-year-old in Patiala who had been gang-raped earlier this month committed suicide this week because the police allegedly embarrassed her and refused to register a case for over a month. "The police started pressuring her to either reach a financial settlement with her attackers or marry one of them," her sister has said. A video of the victim sharing details of her assault has been accessed by TV channels.
