The magnitude of sexual assault crimes against women is increasing every day. It is as if the culprits do not fear laws anymore. The rape news makes me feel sick and pathetic about the society we live in. We can go on and on about this but the crimes won’t stop and the reasons are many. In fact, girls aren’t really safe anywhere and it does not really matter if she knows that person too. Such an unbelievable incident was reported from Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh where a 16-year-old girl was gang-raped by her cousins. The police even confirmed that the victim’s grandmother was raped.
The appalling incident happened on August 11, when the 16-year-old visited her uncle’s place for Raksha Bandhan. As per the news, two of her cousins have been accused of raping and killing the girl at her uncle’s place. The girl was brutally raped and physically assaulted. She was admitted to a private hospital but she could not even live for another day. The victim’s father had reported the incident to the police and had also said that when the victim’s grandmother tried to save her, one of the accused, raped her too. This was later on confirmed by the police, after some medical examinations on the grandmother. The alleged culprits have been charged under POCSO Act and also under various sections of IPC. Police also informed that only one accused has been taken into custody, and the search for another one is still ongoing. The young girl’s body was burned by the police, as per the news.

What is wrong with our society? How did these culprits develop this shameful mindset that gave them the courage to carry out such a horrible crime? They were her cousins. This incident is beyond anyone’s imagination but unfortunately, it is happening in society. I hope justice is served soon! However, now the girl won’t come back and the scars will never be filled.
