* "I hope you have not faced any danger," shot back Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav today when asked about the law and order situation in the state in the backdrop of the Badaun rape and murder case and the Azamgarh gang-rape incident. When the journalist said, "No", the Chief Minister said, "Thank you. You should propagate this."
What a moron!!!!!!!!!
The Indian mindset collectively leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to successful rehabilitation of rape victims. Yet one of the most shameful problems the authorities need to address effectively is the mindset of the police officers who are in most cases the first point of contact for a woman trying to seek justice.
* Lashing out on the SP chief, Kiran Bedi stated, "When Mulayam Singh Yadav says boys make mistakes, then it has an impact on people's psyche."
* Blaming police laxity for the horrific gang-rape, Union Women and Child Welfare Minister Maneka Gandhi today said that a "rape crisis cell" will be constituted for speedy action on such incidents.
* SP Atul Kumar Saxena said the services of two constables Chhatrapal Yadav and Sarvesh Yadav have been terminated. "One more accused Awadhesh Yadav has been arrested by the police," he said. Of the seven wanted in the case, three (policeman Sarvesh Yadav and brothers Pappu and Awadhesh Yadav) have been arrested so far, he said. Sarvesh and Pappu were arrested yesterday. Four others Urvesh Yadav (brother of Pappu and Awadhesh), policeman Chhatrapal Yadav and two unidentified persons are at large.
The case has drawn attention to the poor state of women safety in Uttar Pradesh. Just earlier today, it was reported that the mother of another rape victim was assaulted and stripped by the father of the rape accused, on Monday, May 26, in Etawah—the hometown of Samajwadi Party (SP) supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav.
Incidents of such brutal violence against women are not a first in Etawah, nor . There have been several cases in just one year.
