    Crime

    A young Nepalese woman was allegedly raped by three persons in the national capital after the man who promised her a job abroad abandoned her, police said today.

    The 21-year-old woman was raped allegedly by three persons in east Delhi's Mandavli last night after an auto driver Vinod (24) dropped her there though she had asked him to take her to Mukherjee Nagar, a senior police official said.

    The woman hailing from Kathmandu had reached the capital on July two with one Manoj (24) who promised her a job in Kuwait and took her to Indira Gandhi International Airport yesterday and abandoned her there.

    Manoj had taken her to Mukherjee Nagar on her arrival and yesterday, he took her to the airport saying she can board the midnight flight to Kuwait. However, he disappeared soon after they reached the airport.

    The woman could neither find her name in the list of passengers nor she was in possession of a ticket, the official said adding that she then took the autorickshaw of Vinod and asked him to take her to Mukherjee Nagar.

    However, Vinod allegedly took her to Mandavli and promised her a better job and other facilities.

    He took her to the house of one Avdesh, another auto driver, and told her that she would be safe. Later, Vinod allegedly took her passport and other belongings and left the place.

    Who's Fault?By: Nupur Shridhar | 07-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward What people need to understand is that "rape" doesn't mean "an act women instigate." Rape is not caused by low-cut blouses. It isn't caused by traveling at night. Rape is a crime, committed largely by men (and largely against women), that is about power and subjugation. Simply put, regardless of where this young woman (or any woman) was or how naively she acted, she ought to be protected, not simply by federal or state authorities, but also by the good intentions and consciences of each and every citizen.Who's at fault, then? Certainly the auto drivers--but also those of us who would try to blame an innocent woman who came here full of hope for a better future. Rape might be COMMITTED by a very small (but still alarmingly large) percentage of the Indian population, but it's PERPETUATED by those of us who prefer to blame its victims rather than rectifying the socioeconomic inequalities that foster it; currently, we are failing in our attempts to educate men and protect women.
    Blaming the victimBy: arun lal | 07-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward "there are lots of policeman in surroundings... she had to complaint there...". Mr. Manager: Are you joking? Don't you know the excellent record of your police? Fake encounter killings, sexual harrassment (you call it eve teasing), rapes and the list goes on. How unfortunate that you guys constantly blame the victims. Jine naaz hai hind per woh kahan hain?
    Stop blaming the victim!By: observer | 07-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward She did not go with 'strangers' as some posters have reported. She got into a taxi and was duped by the driver. Just because she did not know the place that well does not mean rape is her fault. If that is the case then every tourist coming to India is automatically just asking to be raped.

    GANG RAPE OF NEPALI WOMANBy: joiceeverghese | 06-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward 75% mistake is of the victim, why did she leave air port to an unknown place ? She should have reported the matter to the Police when she was in doubt of her travelling.
