The horror of the Nirbhaya gangrape and murder, and the subsequent death sentence for the rapists does not seem like a deterrent to other sex criminals. In a horrific case last week, a 23-year-old woman was gang-raped and murdered with her mutilated body being found in the city of Rohtak in Haryana.
Reports say that stray dogs had bitten away the woman's face and the lower portion of her body, which was spotted by a passerby. The police have already arrested two persons in this case and one of the accused is a jilted lover, who had abducted and subsequently murdered her, after she refused to marry him. He had gotten into an argument with the woman, after which he committed the crime along with an accomplice.
