Lynch mob of 200 women brutally kill rapist who is standing trial in court

[quote]At 3pm on August 13 2004, Akku Yadav was lynched by a mob of around 200 women from Kasturba Nagar. It took them 15 minutes to hack to death the man they say raped them with impunity for more than a decade. Chilli powder was thrown in his face and stones hurled. As he flailed and fought, one of his alleged victims hacked off his penis with a vegetable knife. A further 70 stab wounds were left on his body. The incident was made all the more extraordinary by its setting. Yadav was murdered not in the dark alleys of the slum, but on the shiny white marble floor of Nagpur district court.
Laughed at and abused by the police when they reported being raped by Yadav, the women took the law into their own hands. A local thug, Yadav and his gang had terrorised the 300 families of Kasturba Nagar for more than a decade, barging into homes demanding money, shouting threats and abuse.
When one 22-year-old reported being raped by Yadav, the police accused her of having an affair with him and sent her away. Several others were sent away after being told: "You're a loose woman. That's why he raped you." [/quote]

This is what happens when you turn the other cheek too many times. Anger doesn't always go away, sometimes the pot simmers until it comes to a nice rolling boil, then you see this happen.

That's about par for the course in our country, the police are also largely misogynistic and patriarchal. They'll stoop to defending the rapists if they must for no other reason than to save themselves the trouble of conducting investigations.
There is nothing older than the news from yesterday.
Except maybe the news from ten years ago. Seriously, why did you post this here?
To start a ten page shitstorm thread?

You're a fucking barbarian if you think anyone deserves that kind of punishment.

Did you seriously think reposting shit from reddit's main page would be interesting?
Pretty much everything on FP is a Reddit front page repost these days, it's unavoidable.
