[Horrific] Delhi teen gang-raped by 11 men. When will India's nightmare end?

On Monday, India saw yet another chilling reminder of the 2012 Delhi gangrape, after a Delhi teen reported that she was allegedly gang raped by 11 men over 24 hours at a hotel room in Jaipur. The 17-year-old girl told the police that a couple had taken her to Jaipur under the pretext of getting her a job and later abandoned her at the hotel room, following which, she said, 11 people took turns to rape her. The survivor later managed to escape and reported the incident to the police. Six arrests have been made in the case, the police said.

The incident has, yet again, sent shockwaves through the country, where over 3.3 lakh crimes have been reported in 2014 alone, as per the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB).

Will India ever manage to find a lasting solution to tackle such barbaric crimes against women?
