DW News published this video item, entitled “Latest case of gang rape in India causes outrage | DW News” – below is their description.

There’s shock and anger in India after a 19-year-old gang raped and left for dead by her attackers, died in hospital. The victim belonged to the Dalit community, the lowest in India’s caste system. She was left paralysed and severly injured by her alleged attackers, all upper caste men. They have been arrested. But the incident, less than 200 kilometers from Delhi has raised questions of a cover-up as well, especially after she was cremated in the dead of night by police, against her family’s wishes.
