Indian police bring to court suspects in Danish gang rape

Indian police Thursday brought to a local court two suspects in the gang rape of a Danish woman tourist this week in the Indian capital, said local TV channel Times Now. The court remanded three days in police custody of the two men who were suspected to be part of a gang who raped a 51-year-old Danish woman tourist for three hours in a wild garden Tuesday in central Delhi, said the TV report. Meanwhile, police are raiding some seedy places in Delhi to look for at least four other suspects, said local media reports. Police said two homeless men living at the New Delhi railway station area were arrested Wednesday evening in connection with the gang rape, which shocked India. The tourist was kidnapped and repeatedly gangraped for three hours by at least six men, all drunk, in a wild garden in a residential compound for railway clerks near the railway station in Delhi Tuesday. She lost her way and were kidnapped when asking for directions to go back to her hotel. The victim managed to get back to her hotel and reported to police. She was so traumatized that she collapsed when boarding the plane to fly back to Denmark Wednesday morning, according to media reports. Foreign women are frequently targeted by criminals in India. In the latest cases of sexual assault against foreign women, a Polish tourist was raped earlier this month by a taxi driver near Delhi and a German volunteer social aid worker was raped by a man on a night train this week in Chennai, south India. Local media said the latest rapes have further proved India is a highly dangerous place for women.
