What's wrong in India? R.I.P Damini
A few days ago, an Indian girl was brutally gang raped by 6 men in Delhi (India). Damini (name given to the victim) and a male companion boarded a bus in the evening , and were assaulted by six passengers already aboard.
The victim's friend was beaten, gagged and knocked unconscious with an iron bar.
The men then dragged the woman to the rear of the bus beating her with the bar and raping her while the bus was in motion.
She was so severely injured, that she was on the verge of dying in hospital, this happened on 16 december, this year.
Today, 29 december... after fighting for her life in hospital..she died.
"Damini" was a Hindi film, released in 1993, featuring a woman's struggle against society and her family for justice for a rape victim. She has been named Damini, symbolically.
I read the news today, and this makes me really, really sad, I can't understand why people are so cruel and mean. They are just cowards, animals.. this is utterly disgusting...
Some indian people told me, this is quite common in India, women are not safe at all. If a man can not respect a woman, he should not be accepted in the society.
I found this photo on net, some indian person said this national shame should be celebrated everyday in india, as almost every day there is some abuse... , and this is really alarming.
This makes me sad, but what really makes me angry is the opinion of some people who actually blame the victim: for being out late at night, for being divorced, talking to strangers, drinking, dressing “provocatively” etc. And I can not tolerate this.
A man who insults, beats...rapes a woman, is not a man, is not even human, is just disgusting trash that needs to be cleaned from society.
Rest in peace, dear Damini.
