A gang of men - including at least one police officer - allegedly raped and killed two teenage sisters in rural India then hung their bodies from a tree, authorities said today.
Villagers found the girls, aged 14 and 15, hanging in a mango tree hours after they....
disappeared near their home in Katra village in Uttar Pradesh state.
They had gone into fields because there was no toilet in their home.
Hundreds of angry villagers crowded around the tree for the rest of the day, silently protesting alleged police inaction in the case.
Amid conflicting reports, police are believed to have arrested four men later in the day and were searching for three more suspects.
Some reports said a police officer was among those arrested. Others said two were detained.
It was also reported that just one person had been apprehended.
Autopsies confirmed the girls had been gang-raped and strangled before being hanged, police Superintendent Atul Saxena said.
Such a shame India!
Our condolences to the family of this poor girl. The girls deserve justice.
