India Police Complicit In War On Women

Two female police constables in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh have been suspended for detaining a 10-year-old rape victim.

According to reports, the girl had gone to the police station with her mother to lodge a rape complaint when she was detained.  She was released after several hours when local residents protested against her detention.

The girl was found lying unconscious in a field by her parents who alleged that she was raped by a 24-year-old local man.
