- And my parting words on this thread would be ....nope India doesn't have a rape problem..it is a western media conspiracy ...as clearly demonstrated in the latest news below. @Bitter Melon will now claim that the rapists were paid by BBC perhaps ? Or perhaps we are being culturally insensitive to the poor boys who were just out to paint the town red ? Yup, our tourists stats are sure going to boost up with news like this hitting the streets!

Kolkata - Police in eastern India said Saturday they were investigating the gang-rape of a 75-year-old nun by burglars who broke into the convent school where she lived.
Two people have been arrested in connection with the alleged attack on Friday night, when 12 men broke into the convent in West Bengal state.
"A preliminary investigation has revealed that a nun at the school was gagged and gang-raped," police inspector general Anuj Sharma told AFP.
"Two people have so far been arrested," he said, adding that the nun was recovering in hospital.
Local residents took to the streets in anger, shouting slogans demanding action and blocking off the main highway.
‘Horrific attack’
West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee tweeted her condemnation of what she called a "horrific attack", promising "swift, strongest action".
The incident came at a time of heightened sensitivity over women's safety in India, which last week banned a documentary about the 2012 gang-rape of a student in Delhi that sparked mass protests.
Authorities said screening the documentary could have caused public disorder, but critics accused the government of being more concerned with the country's reputation than the safety of its women.
The December 2012 gang-rape of a young physiotherapy student, who cannot be named, highlighted the frightening level of violence against women in the world's second most populous country and triggered mass protests.
It led to a major reform of India's rape laws, speeding up trials and increasing penalties, although many campaigners say little has changed for women on the ground.

Easy Meat: Multiculturalism, Islam and Child Sex Slavery
British authorities enforcing political correctness have allowed Muslim paedophile gangs to sexually abuse children with impunity for more than two decades, according to a comprehensive new study that examines the harrowing epidemic of
child grooming in towns and cities across Britain.
The meticulously documented report, entitled, "
Easy Meat: Multiculturalism, Islam and Child Sex Slavery," shows how officials in England and Wales were aware of rampant child grooming—the process by which sexual predators befriend and build trust with children in order to prepare them for abuse—by Muslim gangs since at least 1988.
Rather than taking steps to protect British children, however, police, social workers, teachers, neighbors, politicians and the media deliberately downplayed the severity of the crimes perpetrated by the grooming gangs in order to avoid being accused of "Islamophobia" or racism.
The conspiracy of silence was not broken until November 2010, when it was leaked that police in Derbyshire had carried out an undercover investigation—dubbed
Operation Retriever—and arrested 13 members of a Muslim gang for grooming up to 100 underage girls for sex.
Seven members of a child sex grooming gang in Oxford who were found guilty in 2013 (clockwise from top left): Kamar Jamil, Akhtar Dogar, Anjum Dogar, Assad Hussain, Mohammed Karrar, Bassam Karrar, and Zeeshan Ahmed.
They were sentenced to a combined 95 years in prison for raping, torturing and trafficking British girls as young as 11.
Shortly thereafter, the
Times of London published the results of a groundbreaking investigation into the sexual exploitation and internal trafficking of girls in the Midlands and the north of England. In January 2011, the newspaper reported that in 17 court cases since 1997 in which groups of men were prosecuted for grooming 11 to 16 year old girls, 53 of the 56 men found guilty were Asian, 50 of them Muslim, and just three were white.
In September 2012, the
Times published another exposé that revealed the hidden truth about the sale and extensive use of British children for sex. The article showed that organized groups of Muslim men were able to groom, pimp and traffic girls across the country with virtual impunity. Although offenders were identified to police, they were not prosecuted. A child welfare expert interviewed by the newspaper said the government's reluctance to tackle such street grooming networks represented "the biggest child protection scandal of our time."
But the latest study—which avoids sensational details and confines itself to exposing where officialdom has failed—demonstrates that even the coverage in the
Times has understated the scale of the problem:
"There is far more to this story than has come out so far. The population are already outraged by what they have learned in the last year or two, but know only a fraction of the scandal... This massive over-representation of Muslim men in this crime spree has been borne out by the prosecutions of the last three to four years, but it is clear that it must have been known long ago and should have been made public. Because the predators were Muslims, the agencies responsible for child-protection have almost entirely failed in their job to protect vulnerable children. From a fear of being called 'racist,' police forces across the country have buried the evidence."
"On the rare occasion when the phenomenon [of child grooming] would be discussed in more than the briefest details, political activists and the authorities would come together to stop the public from knowing more. Political correctness would be used to make sure that people did not speak about this phenomenon, enabling the perpetrators free rein to sexually abuse schoolgirls for decades.
Yes, decades. We know that in an age where parents are not allowed to smack their children, this sounds unbelievable."
The report shows that even documents that supposedly address the problem of child grooming have gone out of their way to avoid discussing why some "ethnic groups" are massively over-represented as perpetrators—the study calculates that Muslims are 154 times more likely to be perpetrators of these crimes than non-Muslims—while the schoolgirl victims are overwhelmingly of a different ethnic group.
"The perpetrators have been overwhelmingly men from Muslim communities, and the victims have been overwhelmingly girls from non-Muslim communities (Sikhs, Christians and Atheists). Yet the professionals never deemed it important to declare this, or even denied the pattern existed."
"Despite government agencies in Rotherham [a large town in South Yorkshire, England] knowing about (and privately discussing) the Muslim grooming gangs from 1996, a 2010 document by Rotherham Safeguarding Children Board stated that 'great care will be taken in drafting…this report to ensure that its findings embrace Rotherham's qualities of diversity. It is imperative that suggestions of a wider cultural phenomenon are avoided.'"
One of the defining features of child grooming is the ethnic/cultural homogeneity of the gang members, and the refusal of other members of their community to speak out about them or to condemn their behavior. According to the report, the gangs are often made up of brothers and members of their extended family, many from Pakistan, who take part in the grooming and/or rape of the schoolgirls.
The report states that grooming gangs target young girls, aged between 11 and 16, because the gang members want virgins and girls who are free of sexual diseases. "Most of the men buying sex with the girls have Muslim wives and they don't want to risk infection," the report states. "The younger you look, the more saleable you are."
"The schoolgirls they target are overwhelmingly non-Muslim, while the gangs are overwhelmingly Muslim. The girls are often lured into the clutches of the gang using a young Muslim man who befriends/seduces the girl. None of this is accidental; here we are not talking about cross-cultural romantic relationships. What is so unusual about this disparity in ethnicity, is that mostly Muslims in Britain have little or no interaction with the indigenous population."
The scale of the problem is truly horrifying. According to
Parents against Child Sexual Exploitation (PACE), a national charity focused on working with the victims of child grooming and their families, at least 10,000 British children are in the clutches of the gangs at any one time, and at least 1,000 new girls are being groomed by gangs each year.
But this is "just the tip of the iceberg," according to a
document published by the House of Commons, which estimates that at least 20,000 British children are at risk of sexual exploitation by grooming gangs.
Meanwhile, prosecutions are few and far between. The report calculates that for every man convicted of such crimes, there are between two to ten other men who were directly implicated, but for whom there was insufficient evidence to secure a conviction. "If this is true," the authors write, "it means that with this crime there are very many perpetrators getting away with it."
Finally, the authors of the report examine the links between Islamic culture and doctrine and the crime of child grooming. They note:
"There is not one case where it was non-Muslim men grooming Muslim girls, and that despite the fact that 95% of the men in Britain are not Muslims…There is no evidence at all that non-Muslim men are grooming Muslim children, but ample evidence that Muslim men are directing their grooming at non-Muslim schoolgirls."
At the same time, "the notion that Islam could be the basis for this criminality is always ruled out of the question, with no investigation of Islamic theology, the history of Islam, or the rulings of Sharia law."
The authors then provide a thorough examination of Islamic sacred texts (pp. 222-268) and conclude, among other observations:
1) "The laws in various Islamic states show that they think that Aisha [who was married to Mohammad at the age of six] was under 10 when Mohammed had sex with her. And to Muslims, Mohammed is regarded as the perfect man; it is part of their religion that they should emulate his behavior."
2) "Muslim men are taught in mosques that women are second-class citizens, little more than chattels or possessions over whom they have absolute authority."
3) "The Koran makes a distinction between legal wives and slaves, and instructs Muslim men that they can have sex with either their wives or their slaves."
4) "Not only are Muslim men permitted legally and morally to rape their slaves, but they are also forgiven if they turn a slave girl into a prostitute."
5) "There are also features of Islam which are supremacist and which look with contempt at non-Muslims."
6) "The Hadiths also permit Muslims to rape women who are captured after a battle (whereupon they become the property of Muslims, that is, they become slaves)."
At the same time, British judges are increasingly using Islamic Sharia law to justify light sentences for Muslims who rape underage girls:
"As late as May 2013, the media were reporting that a Muslim man in Nottingham who had 'raped' an underage girl, was spared a prison term after the judge heard that the naïve 18-year-old attended an Islamic faith school where he was taught that women are worthless. Rashid told psychologists he had no idea that having sex with a willing 13-year-old was against the law; besides, his education had taught him to believe that 'women are no more worthy than a lollipop that has been dropped on the ground.'"
The report is emphatic in blaming the doctrine of multiculturalism for Britain's lack of resolve in confronting the grooming gangs:
"Multiculturalism is a fundamentally incoherent doctrine, invented to conceal the serious conflicts which have arisen when peoples from vastly different cultures, with different values, are forced to live together."
"Political correctness and the doctrine of multiculturalism meant that the professionals whose job it was to help the vulnerable were consciously commanding that these diverse cultural values could not be discussed."
"Multiculturalism came about in order to deny that there is any significance to cultures having different values and to conceal that there will be conflict when these incompatible values come together. Political correctness is the means by which such denial is enforced."
"Those who propound and defend multiculturalism say that people from different cultural backgrounds have different values, and that we must all accept these values as being of equal validity. But when it comes to examining what those different values are, multiculturalists suddenly lose interest in the details of these differences and lose interest in the consequences that follow from these different values. Yet we have seen, that even those Muslims who are classified as liberal or moderate have views which would be considered extreme if those views were espoused by a non-Muslim in Britain. Are we really surprised that conflicts and problems arise when communities with different values are living side-by-side? These conflicts are just concealed by the advocates of multiculturalism. Proponents of multiculturalism dare not examine the views of Islamic fundamentalists, that (significant) minority of Muslims in Britain who want Sharia law."
"Multiculturalists think that Muslims will embrace multiculturalism; yet Islam was established 1,300 years ago to destroy multiculturalism."
"Islamic society is a totalitarian society, all other values are to be subordinated to Islamic values. But if anyone in Britain dares to criticize Islam, they will be denounced and told they live in a multicultural society, and must accept these totalitarian values."
The report concludes: "Every decade, the Muslim population of Britain almost doubles in size, so there is every reason to believe that without some massive changes in our society, the activities of these gangs will grow and grow."

Rapes increase by 29% as overall crime falls in England and Wales

The number of rapes reported to and recorded by police in England and Wales is at its highest ever level, official figures have shown.
There were 22,116 recorded rapes in the year to June, a rise of 29% on the year before, police figures released by the Office for National Statistics show.
Victims are "more willing" to report rape, Crime Minister Norman Baker said.
Separate statistics from the Crime Survey for England and Wales showed overall crime fell by 16% to 7.1m.
The overall figure covers crimes against households and adults in England and Wales, and this type of crime is at its lowest level since the survey began in 1981.
'Taking action'
John Flatley, head of crime statistics at the ONS, told the BBC the increase in recorded rapes was driven by two main factors.
He said: "We have seen over the last few years a notable rise in victims coming forward to report historical offences.
"But this recent set of figures shows quite a change in that pattern, with 73% of the rise due to current offences.
"So victims are coming forward now to report recent occurrences rather than historical ones and it's certainly the case the police are taking action to improve their recording and handling of rape investigations."
The ONS figures also showed a 48% increase in knife-point rapes, from 199 to 294.
Analysis
Danny Shaw, BBC home affairs correspondent
The increase in police recorded rape offences follows a trend that began after the Jimmy Savile affair in 2012, when more sexual abuse victims felt empowered to report what had happened to them.
It also reflects changes in police procedures after some forces were criticised for wrongly chalking off rape allegations - a practice known as "no criming".
But it is unclear whether the increase is also partly due to a real rise in rape and no clues are offered by the Crime Survey, which doesn't ask people if they have been victims of sexual offences.
However, statisticians were clear that a 48% rise in knife-point rapes is not due to different recording methods but is likely to be "genuine".
Even though the number of such offences is relatively small, that is a real concern - and something that is not currently well understood.
Crime Prevention Minister Norman Baker said alleged rape victims were now more willing to come forward than in the past.
He added: "We've improved the police recording of these terrible crimes and consequently we're now seeing an official increase."
Shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper said: "These figures show a shocking failure to help rape victims and bring dangerous criminals to justice."
'Tip of iceberg'
Liz McKean, co-director of the End Violence Against Women Coalition said she would consider the figures positive if the increase in rape reports was due to alleged victims feeling more able to come forward.
She said: "Women's support services line Rape Crisis have certainly been seeing an even larger increase in calls to their help lines from women abused in the past and now seeking support."
A spokeswoman for Rape Crisis, which campaigns to eliminate sexual violence, said the the figures were "just the tip of the iceberg" and sexual violence remains "hugely under-reported".
Chief Constable Jeff Farrar, national lead on crime statistics for the Association of Chief Police Officers, said it was "reassuring" to see an increase in the reporting of sexual offences.
"This shows that victims of abuse have greater confidence that if they report to the police they will be listened to, taken seriously and their report will be investigated fully, regardless of when the offence took place," he said.
Overall, police-recorded crime was stable, though fraud and shoplifting increased.
Hate crime showed an increase of 5% to 44,480 incidents in the year-long period, up from 42,236 the previous year.
Race hate crimes were also up 4% to 37,484 incidents and religious hate crimes were up 45% to 2,273 offences.
'Right direction'
BBC home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw said statisticians believed this was driven by higher levels of hate crime in the wake of the murder of soldier Lee Rigby in May last year.
On the overall crime figure, Mr Baker said the government was "cracking crime".
He said: "The public at large can have confidence that this is going in the right direction. I think people are less worried about crime than they were."
Mr Farrar said the overall figures "again demonstrate" the police service's commitment to reducing crime and improving the way forces record it.
Thursday's figures do not cover Scotland and Northern Ireland.
The overall crime rate rose by 1.7% in Northern Ireland in the 12 months to the end of August.
In March, the Scottish government said crime had fallen by 22% in four years.
