I just wonder if it is true or not:
"Indian police say three raped scholar from Japan" by Indrajit Singh, Associated Press January 03, 2015
PATNA, India — Police arrested three Indians on charges of raping a 22-year-old Japanese research scholar near a Buddhist pilgrimage center in eastern India, police said Friday.
Police were looking for two more suspects who also allegedly kept the Japanese woman as a hostage for nearly three weeks in a village near Bodh Gaya, a town nearly 80 miles south of Patna, the capital of Bihar state, police officer Akhilesh Singh said.
She escaped from their captivity on Dec. 26 and reached Kolkata, once known as Calcutta, and filed a police complaint. She has been studying life in rural India, Singh said.
A Kolkata-based tourist guide had taken the Japanese woman to Bodh Gaya to show her the Buddhist pilgrimage center where Gautam Buddha is said to have obtained enlightenment under a tree. He was joined by four others in keeping her in captivity and raping her, Singh said.
Two of the arrests were made from the area on Friday and one earlier this week in Kolkata, police said.
India has a long history of tolerance of sexual violence. But a series of high-profile rape cases have triggered a strong public outrage in recent years, leading to tough antirape laws.
India has doubled prison terms for rapists to 20 years and it has criminalized voyeurism, stalking, and the trafficking of women. The law also makes it a crime for officers to refuse to open cases when complaints are made.
Meanwhile, Indian police said Friday that they were searching for two officers in the Budaun district of Uttar Prad-esh after a 14-year-old girl from a local village accused them of raping her.
Morality-preaching authority tends to be the worst offender, yeah.
The two officers, Veer Pal Singh Yadav and Avnish Yadav, who were in charge of patrolling the girl’s village and are not related, were suspended and are now missing, according to Santosh Kumar Singh, the police chief of Budaun.
“I am on the move with a police team and raiding different places to arrest the named constables,” said Ram Lakhan Yadav, a police official in charge of the Musajhag police station in Budaun, where the rape was said to have taken place.
In an interview with the Indian news channel Times Now, the girl’s mother, who under Indian law could not be identified, said that her daughter went to relieve herself in the fields outside their house on Wednesday night when she was seized by the two police officers, taken to a room in the local police station, and raped.
What, no al qaeda, I mean, toilet?
What do they call it in India, an ISIS (pfft)?
Looks like a clean-cut case of psyop propaganda to me.
The girl’s family said she was brought home at midnight.
--more--"
I was told some arrest had been made in a Sunday brief, but, well, you know.... Globe didn't want to talk about it anymore.
