Third rape in 48 hours, victim burnt alive - you think you are secured ?

All the events in our country one after the other are just being looking as if they have become natural. Nothing moves us from our daily life. We just don't really care about anything that goes around without effecting us directly. A martyr's widow or mother, a raped girl, a jobless man, etc. feel the actual pain of living with the people like us. Rape - a victim knows the deathly attack - much bitter than poison.

A 33-year-old woman was burnt alive after allegedly being raped in Etah district in Uttar Pradesh on Sunday.
Her family alleged that five men first gangraped her and then lynched her because they were afraid that she would identify them and go to the police.

The police have denied these allegation and have claimed that the attackers were trying to rob and not rape her.
This will be third rape case to be reported in the state in 48 hours.Earlier a Dalit minor from Kannauj was allegedly stabbed in the eye and left blind by two men when she resisted rape. Two policemen were suspended for delaying the filing of an FIR.
An 18-year-old Dalit girl was also allegedly raped at gunpoint by a man in Ranipur Beladi village.

Even after 27 days, Shiromani Akali Dal leader Satnam Singh Kahlwan -- accused of raping 13 year old girl, continues to evade arrest. However, adding insult to the injury, Satnam's mother flaunts her VIP connection and says her family not afraid of anyone.


Reporter: People say that he is the relative of Brahampura (Cabinet minister), so police is not able to arrest him?

Satnam Singh's mother: Police can arrest him, why not?

Reporter: So why is he still roaming free?

Satnam Singh's mother: Inquiry has been launched, but we are not afraid of anyone.

Reporter: Mr Brahmpura is with you?

Satnam Singh's mother: Yes, he is with us.

Close relative of Punjab's Rural Development and Panchayat Minister Ranjit Singh Brahampura -- Satnam Singh has clearly used his political might. Not surprisingly, police is still dragging its feet on his arrest formally and only filing an FIR after confirmation of rape in the medical examination.

But with no word from Akali government and Prakash Singh Badal, the victim's family still awaits justice. Are the authorities overlooking the case because of Satnam's connection to a state cabinet minister?
